Why Choose Neuroscience?

Neuroscientists use an ever-increasing range of tools to examine the molecular, structural, physiological, cognitive, and behavioral aspects of the brain and nervous system. Through their research, neuroscientists are able to describe the normal function of electrical tissues, including the human brain, which then allows them to understand and find ways to prevent or cure many devastating neurological and psychiatric disorders.
