| Welcome
to the Neuroscience Program at Washington University!
Our Program offers outstanding neuroscience education
for Ph.D. students and exciting research opportunities
for Postdoctoral scientists. The Program
includes a broad spectrum of research laboratories
that study how the brain works, how it develops
and how it malfunctions in disease. We take pride
in our friendly and vibrant work environment.
Please explore our site to learn about the Program,
the graduate admissions
process,
the Neuroscience community, and city of St. Louis.
$30 million project will map the brain's wiring
An unprecedented five-year, $30 million effort to generate a first-of-its kind map of all the major circuits in the human brain is being led by Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and the University of Minnesota’s Center for Magnetic Resonance Research (CMRR) (more) |
