THE FOUNDATION FOR PSYCHOCULTURAL RESEARCH
FPR CULTURE, MIND, AND BRAIN NETWORK
Culture, Mind, and Brain (CMB) stands for an integrative approach to understanding human evolution, cognition, emotion, self, agency, ritual, religion, and other concepts that are not confined to any one scientific discipline. Crucially, advances in one discipline can redefine work in others, compelling researchers to bridge disciplines with new models that depict interactions between brain, mind, development, the social world, and cultural diversity.
About the Network
The FPR Culture, Mind, and Brain Network is a multidisciplinary, multi-sited community of researchers and scholars who share an interest in culture, mind, and brain interactions and scientific and social questions of common concern. The network objectives are to support research and educational activities that foster collaboration between social scientists and neuroscientists on CMB interactions through workshops, courses, and international exchanges of students and faculty.
Under our new grant initiative, the FPR provides unique funding opportunities to members of the CMB network to: (i) present and discuss their work and methodologies, including use of leading-edge tools and techniques; (ii) exchange ideas; and (iii) explore areas of mutual interest in the liminal territory that exists between disciplines. Ultimately, the integrative research supported by our grants should enrich explanatory models or create alternate conceptual frameworks as well as build new or strengthen existing collaborations with colleagues.
Grant opportunities are currently available to members of the Culture, Mind, and Brain network for:
- Workshops
- Research Travel Grants (Faculty)
- Conference Travel Grants (Graduate Students)
- Curriculum Development
