DIRECTORATE FOR INTEGRATIVE BIOLOGY AND NEUROSCIENCE (IBN)
Neuroscience Sensory Systems
Focuses on the mechanisms by which the nervous system acquires, encodes, and
processes information about the environment. This includes research on neural
processes at the molecular, cellular, systems, and behavioral levels and
psychophysical correlates of sensory neural processes. Topics include sensory
transduction, neural coding and integrative mechanisms, and comparative
aspects of sensory capabilities including vision, hearing, touch, taste,
smell, equilibrium, electrosensation, magnetic sensation, and other senses.
