Investigators
Stark Neurosciences Research Institute investigators at Indiana University School of Medicine participate in the clinical, 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 Indiana University actively publishing and conducting neuroscience-related research. Affiliate membership is available to any Indiana University faculty member, including clinical track faculty, without independent neuroscience-related grant funding or publications as well as faculty from other universities with neuroscience-related research and/or grant funding.
