These funds enable researchers at Western University, along with their national and international academic and commercial partners, to conduct cognitive neuroscience research, to seek answers to fundamental questions regarding how we learn, think, move and communicate. The CFREF program aims to help Canadian postsecondary institutions excel globally in research areas that create long-term economic advantages for Canada. BrainsCAN was competitively selected for funding through this program for seven years starting in September 2016. The BrainsCAN initiative will accelerate Canada’s ability to deliver effective solutions to the challenge of maintaining optimal brain function across the lifespan.","PeriodicalId":378949,"journal":{"name":"Education Policy, Neoliberalism, and Leadership Practice","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126230269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
