Our goal is to address fundamental scientific and philosophical issues of the mind from a number of different disciplines and perspectives. These perspectives include but are not limited to: behavioral economics and the neural processes of decision making, the influence of new/future technology on our perception of the world, neuroethics regarding methods of brain/mind research and publication, debates about &ldquo;hot&rdquo; neuroscience topics and trends in experimentation, animal models of behavioral disorders, and the cellular biology of synaptic structure. In addition to articles, we will also include features on recently published faculty members and the undergraduates who assisted them in their research as well as publish reviews on current undergraduate research.</p> </blockquote> <p>Keep your eyes peeled for copies of the first issue in late January '06!</p> Ryn Nasser Thu, 31 Aug 2006 07:57:59 EDT Undergraduate Journal &quot;The Duke Mind&quot; Returns!
