In his proposed 2014 budget, Mr. Obama will call for investing $100 million to launch the BRAIN (Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies) Initiative -- a project to speed up the development and application of technologies that will help researchers create dynamic brain imaging, in order to learn how individual brain cells and complex neural circuits interact.
The research could lead to new ways to treat brain disorders like Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy or traumatic brain injury. Furthermore, Mr. Obama said, it could lead to millions of Americans with "jobs we haven't even dreamt up yet." The president pointed to technological advancements that were propelled with government investments -- like GPS and the Internet -- to illustrate the importance of basic research investments.
