Faculty in the Neuroscience programs conduct basic and translational research across many areas and work closely with both graduate and undergraduate students addressing fundamental problems in brain science. To find out about the labs and our areas of specialization, visit the faculty profiles.
A wide array of facilities supporting neuroscience research is available through the Centers for Integrative Neuroscience, Cell Signaling, and Smooth Muscle Plasticity, and the Βι¶ΉΣ³» INBRE. These range from tools and technical support for genetic, molecular and cellular analyses to noninvasive imaging of neural activity including fMRI and EEG.
Most faculty labs provide research opportunities for students, including opportunity for course credit. Find the lab doing work that interests you, and contact them to see how you can get involved.
The Βι¶ΉΣ³» ENDURE program is designed to enhance representation of students whose backgrounds are underrepresented in doctoral programs in neuroscience. Please see the Βι¶ΉΣ³» ENDURE program website for additional information about eligibility and about the program.
Βι¶ΉΣ³» INBRE offers two exciting opportunities for undergraduates to have a hands-on laboratory experience in an emerging field of biomedical science such as genomics, proteomics, biological imaging, bioinformatics, or any field of research supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
All biology majors, freshman-seniors, can receive academic credit for undergraduate research and several scholarships are available for students participating in BUR programs.
The University's center for undergraduate research information. View opportunities, see samples and learn how to present your research.
The Center for Integrative Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary research center that brings together neuroscientists from across campus who support the research and mentoring of junior faculty as well as core facilities to provide access to modern neuroimaging techniques and to research with special neurological populations. The Center is supported by an NIH/NIGMS Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) grant.
