CBD Training
CBD Training Program

CBD was established with a grant from the Foundation for Psychocultural Research, and offers pre- and postdoctoral training in the theory and methods integrating research on development, brain function, and cultural processes.

• Pre-Doctoral Training

• Post-Doctoral Training

CBD fosters training and research concerning the integration of these three systems in both normal and pathological conditions. The training programs consist of interdisciplinary research collaboration or mentoring, participation in the semi-weekly CBD Forum, and attendance at the Integrative Seminar on Culture, Brain, and Development.
