Neuroscience
is the study of the brain and nervous system and involves scientists and
technical approaches from many traditional disciplines in the life
sciences. At UWM, neuroscience research and graduate training
involves faculty, students, and postdoctoral researchers from several
academic departments.
Research
Areas
 UWM neuroscience faculty are engaged
in research on several important questions. This work is funded by
research grants from the National Institutes of
Health and the National Science Foundation
as well as several private foundations and the private sector. Multiple
approaches and levels of analysis are represented by the various laboratories
including behavioral, cellular, cognitive, molecular, and systems
neuroscience. Specific areas of interest include molecular
signaling and neural development, hormonal control of behavior and
reproduction, and the neurobiology of memory and cognition in humans and laboratory
animals. Specific
research interests are listed on the individual faculty pages linked at the
left.
Graduate
Program
 Graduate students pursue
interdisciplinary coursework and independent research leading to the M.S. or
Ph.D. in Biological Sciences
or Psychology. Prospective
students should apply to either program with the choice of department
determined by the student's specific interests and choice of major
professor. Specific admissions requirements and instructions may be
obtained elsewhere on this server through the links above.
Undergraduate
Program
 UWM undergraduates can construct a
program of study that takes advantage of the many introductory level
and graduate/undergraduate course offerings by our distinguished
faculty. Each of the participating laboratories also offer
opportunities for independent research and specialized "hands-on"
experience with modern techniques. Undergraduate training in
neuroscience is intended to prepare the student for graduate study or
professional school in the life sciences.
