Undergraduate Journal "The Duke Mind" Returns!
In January 2006, the first issue of the recently revived undergraduate journal, "The Duke Mind," will be published and made available around campus. The journal, which was firts published several years ago, has been resurrected through the hard work of the journal's editorial staff: editors John Gilbert '07 and Yifan Xu '07; and associate editors Alessandra Colaianni '07, Terrell Brotherton '07, and Angela Zhou '07. A description of the group's focus and goals found on the journal's website (www.duke.edu/web/dukemind/) reads:
The Duke Mind is a recently revived undergraduate journal at Duke that publishes student work and research related to a wide range of topics in the brain and behavioral sciences. 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 “hot” 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.
Keep your eyes peeled for copies of the first issue in late January '06!
