Program Description: Neuroscience is by definition an interdisciplinary enterprise, with research interests ranging from the genetic to the behavorial levels. The breadth of approaches that must be employed to understand brain function in health and disease empompass electrophysiological, computational and biophysical methods, molecular biology and genomic technology, immunohistochemistry, and light and electron microscopic imaging techniques. The neuroscience laboratories associated with the BMS Ph.D. program use these techniques in in vivo and in vitro studies at the molecular, cellular, and systems levels.
