You really can’t beat the quality of life for graduate students in Rochester. The city is large enough that it boasts great culture and recreation, yet the cost of living is exceptionally low. Even on a grad student’s salary, you can afford to live in a nice place, have a car and enjoy an evening out.
An enduring role of the Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy continues to be its commitment to education at several levels within the University structure. This commitment includes extensive participatory and leadership roles in medical, graduate, and undergraduate curricula at the University of Rochester. Faculty in Neurobiology and Anatomy have received a continuous stream of awards for teaching and leadership efforts over the years, including a fifth of all Dean's Teaching Scholars Awards, and recurrent commendations and awards conveyed by students.
