Observe and Measure the Mind

Advancing neuroscience through new tools and methods

New tools and methods can help scientists investigate the brain at different scales and both ask and answer questions that were previously too difficult to study. Through our Observe and Measure the Mind program, The Kavli Foundation supports efforts that advance basic research in neuroscience to address opportunities and solve challenges in this dynamic field.
