The CAREER award supports faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAn associate professor in the <a href=\"\/es\/faculty\/computational_neurobiology_laboratory.html\/\">Laboratorio de Neurobiolog\u00eda Computacional<\/a>, Sharpee will receive $453,000 over the next five years to fund her proposed study: &#8220;Characterizing feature selectivity and invariance in deep neural architectures.&#8221; In an effort to help elucidate the principles that make robust object recognition possible, she will explore how an organism&#8217;s neurons are able to demonstrate both &#8220;invariance,&#8221; which produces a similar response to the same object even when observed from different viewpoints, and &#8220;selectivity,&#8221; which requires different responses to potentially quite similar objects. The results of her study will help reveal the common principles of sensory processing in the brain and may ultimately lead to improved designs of artificial recognition systems, including sensory prostheses.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSharpee received her Ph.D. in Physics at Michigan State University and was a Sloan-Swartz Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California, San Francisco. In the Computational Neurobiology Laboratory at the Salk Institute, Sharpee and her team work on theoretical principles of how the brain processes information.\n <\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nAcerca del Instituto Salk de Estudios Biol\u00f3gicos:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>El Instituto Salk de Estudios Biol\u00f3gicos es una de las instituciones de investigaci\u00f3n b\u00e1sica m\u00e1s destacadas del mundo, donde un cuerpo docente de prestigio internacional investiga cuestiones fundamentales de las ciencias de la vida en un entorno \u00fanico, colaborativo y creativo. Centrados tanto en el descubrimiento como en la formaci\u00f3n de las futuras generaciones de investigadores, los cient\u00edficos del Salk realizan contribuciones revolucionarias a nuestra comprensi\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer, el envejecimiento, el Alzheimer, la diabetes y las enfermedades infecciosas mediante el estudio de la neurociencia, la gen\u00e9tica, la biolog\u00eda celular y vegetal, y otras disciplinas relacionadas.<\/p>\n<p>\nLos logros del cuerpo docente han sido reconocidos con numerosos galardones, entre los que se incluyen premios Nobel y la pertenencia a la Academia Nacional de Ciencias. Fundado en 1960 por el Dr. Jonas Salk, pionero en la vacuna contra la poliomielitis, el Instituto es una organizaci\u00f3n independiente sin fines de lucro y un hito arquitect\u00f3nico.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the NSF:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency that supports fundamental research and education across all fields of science and engineering.
