MIT announces committee to foster collaboration in neuroscience
MIT announced today that it is forming an ad hoc committee to review the structure of its neuroscience entities, and to make recommendations for how these entities can work together more productively in the future.
The committee is being formed in part as a response to questions that have been raised within the MIT community about the recruitment of a young neuroscientist to the MIT faculty.
“MIT helped to pioneer cross-disciplinary approaches to research,” said MIT President Susan Hockfield. “Our ability to work effectively across centers, departments and school boundaries will increasingly determine MIT’s success in its mission of research, teaching and service, particularly in the neurosciences.”
