Our approach is to enhance traditional design capabilities for human-involved engineering systems by incorporating knowledge of human understanding (cognitive psychology) and human brain function (neuroscience). The result is an intensively cross-disciplinary research center at UC Davis that develops fundamental knowledge, technical innovation, and validated simulations to enhance human performance in highly-hazardous environments, with significant improvements in safety - in other words, to keep people alive where both the risk and rewards are very high... When conducting experiments to create scientific insight, we recognize that we have a societal and individual responsibility to continually educate ourselves about potential data biases related to subject gender or gender identity.
