Neuroscience Research Facility
Neuroscience faculty from departments including Biological Sciences and Psychological Science work collaboratively in state-of-the-science laboratory facilities for teaching and research. Studies of the brain and behavior provide new insights into treating drug addiction, the effect of infection and drug use on the developing brain, and the impact of widespread pollutants on brain function. Students are able to discover changes in individual cells, neurotransmitters, hormones, gene expression, and behavior to get a complete picture of how the nervous system responds.
