The neuroscience program at the School of MCB integrates molecular and cellular biology with neurochemistry, neurophysiology, and neuro-pathology studies. Learners will explore brain functionality across various scales, ranging from behavioral patterns and cognitive processing to systemic and comprehensive physiological integration. Our research utilizes model organisms including zebrafish, mice, and fruit flies, examining cellular structures from in vitro cultures to their operations within living organisms. The program investigates the origins of diverse neurological conditions, spanning neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as brain tumors and seizure disorders, while working toward therapeutic solutions. Neuroscience students engage with innovative coursework and acquire essential lab competencies. They collaborate with faculty researchers at the forefront of studies in sensory systems, neuroendocrine functions, neural and glial cell physiology, tissue repair, and cellular communication using sophisticated methods like optogenetic manipulation and brain imaging technologies.
