Stark Neurosciences Research Institute investigators at the Indiana University School of Medicine participate in the research and education programs of the institute. Investigators accepted into membership are divided into two categories: primary and affiliate.
Primary membership is available to any full-time faculty member at any IU campus actively publishing and conducting neuroscience-related research. Affiliate membership is available to any IU faculty member, including clinical track faculty, without independent neuroscience-related grant funding or publications and faculty from other universities with neuroscience-related research and/or grant funding.
Responsibilities of members include: submission as a principal investigator or co-principal investigator of neuroscience-related grants; presentation of data at internal and external scientific meetings; publication as contributing author on peer-reviewed articles and book chapters; participation in collaborative efforts via grants and publications in the institute's Research Interest Groups; attendance at the Stark Seminar Series; and solicitation of investigators for membership.
