The Neuroscience Track at Wake Forest University constitutes a graduate program that includes more than 100 participating faculty members across 16 departments. With them, 45 current graduate students and 26 postdoctoral fellows study how the brain and the nervous system work, how they develop, and how they can be affected by the environment and by disease. The track offers training opportunities in state-of-the-art research that span virtually all areas of modern neuroscience, including molecular, developmental and behavioral neurobiology, as well as cognitive and computational neuroscience. These resources, along with our open and collaborative environment, translate into a wide range of personal and professional opportunities for young neuroscientists.
