CBN is a consortium of seven metro-Atlanta, Ga., colleges and universities, including Georgia State University, Emory University, Georgia Institute of Technology, Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Spelman College. Some 100 neuroscientists lead the research program, along with a cadre of more than 50 graduate students and 20 postdoctoral researchers, who share the goal of understanding the basic neurobiology of complex social behaviors associated with fear, aggression, affiliation, memory and cognition, reward and reinforcement, and reproduction. CBN also directs a comprehensive education program designed to train the next generation of scientists.

Behavioral Research Advancements in Neuroscience is the hallmark program of the undergraduate education arm of the Center for Behavioral Neuroscience (CBN), a National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center. The program consists of a 10-week summer research and education experience. BRAIN grows naturally from the scientific and education missions of CBN's member institutions, which are committed to increasing student interest in behavioral neuroscience and, ultimately, in the pursuit of research and other science careers (e.g. science policy, science education, and science journalism).
