New Ideas in Neuroscience
Hey there,
Do you ever get a great idea (or an idea you THINK is great) for a neuroscience research project but don't have the time, background, resources or inclination to go and do it? I know I do. And once the idea is abandoned that's it, over rover for that concept. What if you had shared the idea with someone? Mightn't they be able to give an independent view of how "great" it is? If it is great, then maybe some of those you have shared with do have the time, background, training, resources and the enthusiasm to carry through to develop and test the idea towards completion. i*heart*brains is a forum that enables the sharing of neuroscience ideas to this end, allowing new concepts to be shared, discussed and potentially acted upon by experimental and theorical neuroscientists.
Ideally I*Heart*Brains would become a resource for generation new ideas for grant applications, student projects and new collaborations. What do you think? Is the neuroscience world ready for the free sharing of ideas. In this context I cannot see a reason to not. The thoughts and concepts that we generate every day which subsquently are forgotten, stuffed deep in the filing cabinet or scrawled in a notebook deserve to expanded upon, discussed and informally archived.
Best wishes to you all,
Tony.
