The Princeton Neuroscience Institute (PNI) is a center for neuroscience research at Princeton University.Founded in the spring of 2004, the PNI serves as a "stimulus for teaching and research in neuroscience and related fields" and "places particular emphasis on the close connection between theory, modeling, and experimentation using the most advanced technologies."
The Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences works in collaboration with the McGovern Institute and the Picower Institute, also at the MIT. [8] [5] Computation This deals with the development of theoretical models that explains the processes of memory, language and reasoning using computer simulations and computational models. [9]
Research at SWC is focused on systems neuroscience. SWC’s mission is to understand how neural circuits produce flexible, complex behaviours. [5] The Centre comprises 14 research groups, made up of postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, research assistants, and some Master’s students.
In order to complete the degree, students must pass written and oral qualifying exams, have at least one first author publication accepted, and write a thesis on their work. The average time length for a Mayo graduate student to get a PhD degree is 5.25 years. [5] All Ph.D. students are guaranteed an internal fellowship for up to five years.
The institute has a staff of around 750 and 500 graduate students, an annual turnover of £102 million and occupies around 12,000 sq m of laboratory and office space. [6] Four of the 12 most highly cited authors in neuroscience and behaviour in the world are currently based at the institute. [3]
The Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute (HWNI) at the University of California, Berkeley was created in 1997 as the Center for Neuroscience. It was renamed in 2000, in recognition of the $10 million bequest from tennis champion and Berkeley alumna Helen Wills , who won 31 Grand Slam titles, including 19 in singles.
St. Thomas Aquinas High School students Nicholas Tonzola III and Marissa Nieves recently had their groundbreaking research on dementia published in the International Youth Neuroscience Journal.
UCL Neuroscience is a research domain that encompasses the breadth of neuroscience research activity across University College London's (UCL) School of Life and Medical Sciences. The domain was established in January 2008, to coordinate neuroscience activity across the many UCL departments and institutes in which neuroscience research takes place.
