New - Handbook of Research Methodologies and Design in Neuro-entrepreneurship

Our handbook will be released in September 2017.  Here is the blurb from Edward Elgar the editor's catalog:

NEW
Handbook of Research Methodologies and Design in Neuro-entrepreneurship
Edited by Mellani Day, Mary C. Boardman, Colorado Christian University and Norris F. Krueger, UOPX, US
This Handbook provides an overview of neuroscience-driven research methodologies and how those methodologies might be applied to theory-based research in the nascent field of neuro-entrepreneurship. It presents the current thinking and examples of pioneering work, serves as a reference for those wishing to incorporate these methods into their own research, and provides several helpful discussions on the nature of an answerable question using neuroscience techniques. It includes concrete examples of new ways to conduct research that can shed light onto such areas as decision-making and opportunity recognition, allowing us to ask different, perhaps better, questions than ever before.

Heads up! Neuro Grant - Could be Customized for Neuroentrepreneurship?

The Scientific Research Network on Decision Neuroscience and Aging will award 2-3 grants up to $30,000 in 2017 to junior researchers or senior researchers new to the area. The proposed research must focus directly on adult development and aging or on life course decisions that improve health and well being in old age. Applicants do not have to be US citizens but have to be at a US institution. More info here: http://www.srndna.org/funding/2017-grants/

Please submit a 3-page proposal, a 1-page line-item budget, and NIH biosketches for all key personnel as a single PDF document via email to funding@srndna.org. The $30,000 budget limit is direct costs; the budget should indicate the F&A (indirect cost) rate that your institution has negotiated with NIH for 2017.

The application deadline is Wednesday, March 1, 2017

Proposals will be reviewed by a small group of anonymous network affiliates and scored following NIH/CSR guidelines. Applications scored in the top 50% will receive complete scores and comments using NIH score sheets. We expect funding decisions will be made by mid-April 2017.

It's been a while, but things have been bubbling behind the scenes.

Now I am excited to announce that I along with two co-editors (Mary Boardman and Norris Krueger) am finalizing a draft of a handbook on neuroscience methodologies and how they can be applied in Entrepreneurship research.  Edward Elgar is the publisher, and it should be available as of the end of Summer (or early Fall) of 2017.  Here are some of the details:
