Qualified students receive a stipend and tuition waiver. The Neuroscience program is an interdepartmental program that brings together scientists from different basic and clinical disciplines to focus on the nervous system. Their challenge is to understand how the nervous system developes, functions, and ages, and how is is disrupted by disease. Some researchers seek to clarify the machinery of the brain at the cellular, molecular, or genetic levels. Others seek to understand how the nervous system processes information, controls autonomic functions, regulates states of consciousness, or determines behavior. Still others search for the means to diagnose, prevent, and successfully treat malignant brain tumors, congenital and acquired brain diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, or dysfunctions caused by pathologic states in brain structure. All are committed to educate grduate students in the neurosciences .

Degrees Offered:

M.S.;

Ph.D.

Research Areas:Behavioral neuroscience; Growth factors and neuropeptides; Molecular neurobiology and neurogenetics; Neuronal aging and brain metabolism; Neuronal and glial development; Systems and computational neuroscience

The Department of Neuroscience and Anatomy offers training programs leading to a Masters or Doctoral degrees in Anatomy for individuals interested in acquiring advanced training in the anatomical sciences. The Anaotmy Master's Program is a two year period course of study during which time the student will acquire expertise in gross anatomy, microscopic anatomy, and embryology. Study in these traditional areas will be augmented by courses offered by the Department of Neuroscience and Anatomyk, or by other departments within the College of Medicine. As part of the thesis requirement, each student will conduct original resarch under the supervision of a faculty member culminating in a written master's thesis. Teaching responsibilities in the anatomical sciences are required in the 2nd year. Each student may tailor their graduate training to suit their particular interests as long as they fulfill the basic requirements for the degree; thus, students can emphasize the academic preparation, research or teaching aspects of the program. This program provides an opportunity for students who want to pursue an academic career in the biological sciences to acquire speciality training and teaching experience, or for students who anticipate entering a professional school to demonstrate an aptitude for a regorous biomedical curriculum. The Anatomy Doctoral Program provides similar academic preparation as the Master's program but also involves much more extensive research training and culminates in a doctoral thesis. Research opportunities are focused in both anatomy and neuroscience and offer a range of experimental approaches.

Degrees Offered:

M.S.;

Ph.D.

Research Areas:Neural circuits and coordination of neuronal activity; Auditory computational and systems neuroscience; Synaptic organization of the retina; retinal dystrophy; Cell differentiation in the central nervous system; Growth factors and receptors in brain and heart development and neural cancer; Gene expression in glial cells; Growth and trophic factors in CNS trauma and demyelinating diseases; Peptides and recetors in development, carcinogenesis, cell renewal and wound healing; cerebral glucose transport and ntilization; regulation of blood flow in the pituitary; Photochemotherapy of brain tumors
