The UVA Brain Institute, in collaboration with the Translational Health Research Institute of Virginia (THRIV), welcomes requests for research studios to enhance and refine the conduct of cutting-edge neuroscience research at UVA. A research studio is a novel opportunity for brain researchers at UVA that brings together relevant research experts from diverse academic disciplines to provide feedback on a specific project or area of research to an individual investigator or project team. These sessions, which are based on a model from the Vanderbilt Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (VICTR) Center, may be useful in refining hypotheses and research questions; providing review and feedback of study designs, research methods and grant proposals and in ensuring the most effective and efficient approaches to successful study implementation.
