Our department explores a wide range of research areas, such as social interactions in animals, cognitive processes like learning and memory, decision-making mechanisms, substance dependency, developmental neuroplasticity (examining how brain trauma, stress, and substances affect neural growth), neural signal processing, movement coordination, evolutionary neurobiology, behavioral comparisons across species, focus mechanisms, and robotic systems.

To earn a Ph.D., candidates must complete coursework, pass a comprehensive exam, produce an original Thesis, and successfully defend it orally. Each student's academic path is designed in collaboration with their faculty advisor.
