Students pursue their research interests in laboratories across the University and have the opportunity to combine hands on experimental research with highly sophisticated computational analysis. The overarching mission of the training program is to allow students to move freely between departments, schools, and disciplines thereby providing an innovative and flexible environment for graduate study that merges a foundation in basic neuroscience with a clinical perspective.
