COL­NE’s fun­da­men­tal pur­pose is to pro­mote research and inte­gra­tion of Colom­bian researchers in the field of Neu­ro­sciences, among them­selves and with the inter­na­tion­al com­mu­ni­ty. In this way, con­tribute to the devel­op­ment of basic and applied solu­tions to fron­tier sci­en­tif­ic prob­lems in the field. To achieve this, it will pro­mote the devel­op­ment of the spe­cial­ized sci­en­tif­ic com­mu­ni­ty with­in an envi­ron­ment of intel­lec­tu­al col­lab­o­ra­tion, cama­raderie, and union iden­ti­ty, which can pro­pose in the short, medi­um, and long term ways of dif­fu­sion, appro­pri­a­tion, and social appli­ca­tion of sci­en­tif­ic knowl­edge. COLNE intends to active­ly par­tic­i­pate in the devel­op­ment of research in the field of Neu­ro­sciences in Colom­bia and Latin Amer­i­ca, pro­mote aca­d­e­m­ic activ­i­ties for the dis­sem­i­na­tion and col­lab­o­ra­tion of nation­al and inter­na­tion­al research, as well as con­tribute to the con­struc­tion of a knowl­edge society.
