CBC (previously the Center for Human Information Processing) has the goal of providing a focus for the interest and expertise in cognitive neuroscience in the UC and San Diego communities. It is intended to provide a forum and meeting ground for the theoreticians and researchers who examine cognitive and perceptual processing in the human brain, with particular interest in the neurological/brain basis for these processes.  (Check out the proceedings from the "Brain, Conscious Experience and Human Nature" conference held in January.)
