	Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience Unit
		The main goal of the CBNU is to advance scientific knowledge of human social behaviors by identifying the structure of their underlying neural and psychological processes in both normal healthy people and in patients with neurological and behavioral disorders.
		Characterizing human social behavior and the mechanisms that govern prosocial and antisocial attitudes is a challenging task requiring cross-disciplinary research that includes the fields of neuroscience, psychology, behavioral neurology, psychiatry, anthropology, sociology and evolutionary biology, among others.
		Behavioral inventories and scales that evaluate personality features, emotional make up, empathic responses, antisocial behavior, depression, executive abilities and other cognitive domains are also employed by our team to help characterize brain-behavioral relationships.

		Criminal profiling is a process now known as "criminal investigative analysis." Profilers, or Criminal Investigative Analysts are highly trained and experienced FBI Agents who study every behavioral and forensic aspect and detail of an unsolved violent crime scene in which a certain amount of psychopathology has been left at the scene.
		Psychopathology is an offender's behavioral and psychological indicators that are left at a violent crime scene as a result of his physical, sexual, and in some cases verbal interaction with his victim(s).
		Identifying what the BAU believes some of the offender's key personality and behavioral traits, gleaned from the three crime scenes, may give the person who knows him, whether it is a co-worker, family member, or friend, the confidence to contact law enforcement.

		Further, applied behavior analysis must also be discussed within the context of the particular characteristics of the individual receiving services.
		Thus, it is our strong philosophy that the teaching of applied behavior analysis must be done in a systematic and comprehensive manner that directly addresses issues of appropriate application that takes into consideration issues that are inherent in the appropriate delivery of educational and clinical services.

		Fitzgerald said his analysis of the anthrax-laced letters sent to Sen. Tom Daschle, D-S.D., NBC Nightly News anchor Tom Brokaw and the New York Post suggested that the anthrax mailer acted alone and may have used as little as $2,500 worth of lab equipment to produce the anthrax.
		The FBI produced a profile of the anthrax mailer who was described as a lone person living within the United States who had experience working in labs and was smart enough to produce a highly refined and deadly product.
		Detailed analysis of the anthrax in the letters indicated that it was about two years old at the time of the attack.

		In addition, an analysis of the words written on the anthrax-tainted envelopes and letters seems to be skewed to known facts about the Unabomber.
		James R. Fitzgerald, who heads the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, has stated that the linguistic and behavioral findings have prompted the FBI to look "in the direction of that (the perpetrator) being domestic." The FBI's overall analysis, however, seems to read into some insignificant clues, while ignoring blatantly obvious clues.

		This unit will work in coordination with the education department in the development of individualized behavior modification treatment plans, which will be used within the school setting by special education teachers.

		According to the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), located at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, it is not unusual in this type of case for someone close to the offender, described as a “significant other”, to know or have strong suspicions that their loved one/family member is responsible for these crimes.
		According to the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit, the type of violence seen in these three homicides does not occur in a vacuum.
		Some of these behaviors were described in the profile released in early September.

		Primarily, however, his unit visits crime scenes, collects evidence, and then analyses it in order to deduce the perpetrator’s behavioural traits and state of mind when the crime was committed.
		Although the BSAU is under-funded and has only a skeleton crew, Pongpat remains hopeful that his unit can help to educate the country’s police corps about criminal psychology and crime-scene protocol, while polishing their lackluster image.

	Remember Anthrax?
		On November 9 last year, even before the anthrax outbreak's fifth and final fatality had been recorded (case 23), the FBI called a press conference to unveil its "linguistic and behavioral assessment" of "the person" purportedly responsible.
		By the end of November, after an unopened anthrax letter addressed to Sen. Patrick Leahy was found in sequestered congressional mail, investigators were telling reporters on background that they might well be dealing with someone who has a particular animus against Democrats.
		According to an elaborate forensic analysis sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences in 1998, the accidental 1979 explosion of a Soviet biowarfare factory in what was then Sverdlovsk released no fewer than four separate strains of anthracis into the atmosphere, one of which is now grouped in the same subtype as Ames.

		When analyzed, it proved to be the virulent Ames strain milled to between six and one micron in diameter (one-twentieth of a human hair.) This milling gave it frightening capabilities as an aerosol weapon.
