Chrastil Lab awarded grant from NSF to study navigation and robotics

The Chrastil Lab, along with collaborators Jeff Krichmar, Craig Stark, and Mary Hegarty, were awarded a grant from the National Science Foundation, “Advantages of varying navigational abilities in humans and robots.”
The award will take a full-scale examination of individual differences in navigational ability, from both brain and behavior, and then connecting that to make robots with similar variation.
