Abstract

This project addresses the current needs of the Center for Mathematics, Computation, and Cognition (CMCC) at UFABC. The proposal focuses on: (1) purchasing equipment to upgrade the Laboratory of Computational Biology and Bioinformatics; (2) maintaining equipment in the wet labs for cognition in the Delta Building; (3) acquiring equipment for data collection/analysis using eyetracking and fNIRS; (4) upgrading the air conditioning system in the laboratories of the Delta Building; and (5) acquiring equipment to enhance UFABC's Shared Multiuser Laboratories (LMUs). This infrastructure will be essential for the development of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research activities along three main axes: (i) neuroscience research with an emphasis on neurobiology and psychobiology using animal models; (ii) computational and mathematical modeling of biological systems; and (iii) research on cognitive processes. The proposed upgrades will be crucial for maintaining excellence in research. (AU)
