The Graduate Program in Neuroscience, in the College of Arts and Sciences and the
Renaissance School of Medicine, offers doctoral training toward a Master’s degree
or a Doctoral degree in the rapidly expanding field of neuroscience. Through
coursework and independent research, students are trained to approach research
problems in neuroscience with a broad perspective. Program faculty have Expertise
expertise in the areas of molecular and biochemical control of development,
properties physiology and cellular/molecular properties of receptors and ion
channels in relation to cellular physiology, analysis of local circuits and networks,
behavioral neurosciencethe cellular basis of integrative functions, theoretical and
computational neuroscience and the structural basis for communication among
neurons are available to all students in the program. Graduate students will receive
in-depth research training in molecular, biochemical, physiological, behavioral, or
anatomical and theoretical/computational neurosciences.
