Recruiting for Research and Why This is Important
We are building a closer relationship with UCSF and the research centers there in the area of the brain and memory; in the coming days we will be building out a series of web applications to that effect, which we will notify you about. The bottom line is that you can participate in cutting edge research that has everything to do with our species' future - that is enhancing our understanding of the brain, its impairments, and optimizing it - which is what the top scientists there are dedicating their lives to, as well as helping America's veterans, including people who have Gulf War Syndrome.
