The Graduate Program in Neuroscience at the University of Rochester is designed to provide the interdisciplinary training needed to study the nervous system at many levels of analysis. This is accomplished with the aid of over 80 faculty members in over 20 different departments from both the School of Medicine and Dentistry and The College, representing an extensive community of scientists across a single unified campus. The program offers the opportunity to study a wide range of modern neuroscience disciplines organized into specific programmatic themes. This organization provides a convenient matrix by which both faculty interests and curriculum/course offerings can be effectively parsed. Five themes bind the Program into areas of expertise and research focus.
