Behavioral Neuroscience

The Behavioral Neuroscience program incorporates very active research in which faculty, post-doctoral scientists, and students (undergraduate and graduate) practice a broad range of scientific techniques to examine the biological basis of behaviour. In fact, our emphasis on the study of behavior defines our mission and sets us apart from Neuroscience programs that are limited to studies of isolated cells or tissue systems. Within the Behavioral Neuroscience area, expertise can be found to investigate the brain, spinal cord, and neuroendocrine concomitants of behavior using a variety of systems, cellular, and molecular analyses..
