Program Overview

Introduction to the Neuromotor Skill Advancement for Post-baccalaureates (NSAP) Program

The Neuromotor Skill Advancement for Post-baccalaureates (NSAP) is a 10-week summer program at the University of Houston IUCRC BRAIN Center. This program is designed to provide didactic and hands-on activities focusing on the development of highly specialized technical skills to study the brain. The intention of the NSAP program is to complement and enhance the training of therapists, clinical and research fellows, and orthotists and prosthetists from a community for neurorehabilitation and neuroengineering research.

Program Overview

The NSAP program aims to advance the skills of post-baccalaureates in the field of neurorehabilitation and neuroengineering. The program includes a range of activities, including didactic and hands-on training, to equip participants with the necessary skills to study the brain and contribute to neurorehabilitation and neuroengineering research.

Funding

The NSAP program is funded by the National Institutes of Health Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NIH/NICHD) R25HD.
