Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study
The Krasnow Institute for Advanced Study seeks to expand understanding of mind, brain and
intelligence by conducting research at the intersection of the separate fields of cognitive
psychology, neurobiology and the computer-driven study of artificial intelligence and
complex adaptive systems. These separate disciplines increasingly overlap and promise
progressively deeper insight into human thought processes. The institute also examines how
new insights from cognitive science research can be applied for human benefit in the areas of
mental health, neurological disease, education and computer design.
