The Biobehavioral Core facilitates translational research by:

providing research personnel trained to administer a core set of behavioral assessments;
coordinating access to biobehavioral research resources across collaborating colleges;
providing/ facilitating training for the administration of core assessments;
serving as a training site for pre- and postdoctoral trainees in the behavioral sciences; and
providing consultation regarding potential assessment tools for both animal and human work.
Identifying potential avenues for biobehavioral integration is a key role of the core. The core director and staff work with investigators to identify areas of potential integration. If you are writing a grant, we are happy to meet with you to discuss options for integrating biobehavioral measurements into your protocol.
