Bezos Center for Neural Circuit Dynamics

The Bezos Center for Neural Circuit Dynamics focuses on the development and application of microscopy imaging techniques for measuring neural circuit dynamics in the functioning brain.

Connectomic Imaging Facility
Connectomic Imaging Facility

Electron microscopy (EM) is the only imaging modality that has ever been used to reconstruct a connectome, defined as a complete neuronal wiring diagram of a nervous system or a brain. A mere cubic millimeter of brain tissue amounts to over a petabyte of images at EM resolution, so progress in connectomics…

Research Computing Infrastructure

PNI is committed to maintaining leading-edge research computing infrastructure and support services which help support the creation of novel data collection and analysis methods.

The McDonnell Center for Systems Neuroscience

The McDonnell Center for Systems Neuroscience explores the ways in which the brain acquires, modifies and stores information during cognitive processes. The center is home to research in neural coding and dynamics.

The Regina and John Scully '66 Center for the Neuroscience of Mind and Behavior

The Scully Center for the Neuroscience of Mind and Behavior is of critical importance in enabling Princeton scientists to advance knowledge of how the brain processes information and gives rise to language, emotions, problem solving, and decision making — the mental characteristics that make us human.

Conte Centers

PNI is home to several Conte Centers, which are funded by the National Institute of Mental Health and focused on advancing the understanding of mental illness.
