Students
Students in the program are highly motivated and typically have very strong credentials for admission, including high scores on the Graduate Record Examination, strong undergraduate grade point averages, and prior laboratory experience. Neuroscience students are supported by an NIH training grant, institutional funding, and research grants. Some of our predoctoral students are recipients of individual University Merit Fellowships and pre-doctoral NIH Research Service Awards. The program actively recruits minority students, and women make up over half the current student population.
