Course Overview

The Institute for Neuroscience has clinicians and scientists working together to understand the brain and behavior. From the basic biology of neurons through to complex processes of perception and decision-making behavior, we address how the mind, brain, and bodywork together and translate this knowledge into clinical applications for patient benefit. We offer MPhil, Ph.D., and MD supervision in the following research areas: Motor systems development, plasticity, and function We conduct clinical and preclinical studies of normal and abnormal development and plasticity of the motor system. We run functional studies and computer modeling of motor system activity throughout the neuraxis. We also research the development and assessment of novel therapies for motor disorders/lesions including stem cell and brain-machine interface. Visual system development, plasticity, and repair We research the development and assessment of novel neuro-technological approaches to retinal dystrophy repair including brain-machine interface and stem cells. We use in vitro approaches to look at retinal development and visual system wiring.
