Neuroscience Program

The Neuroscience Program is an interdepartmental graduate program that awards a Ph.D. degree in neuroscience. We offer a broad-based, integrated curriculum that is complemented by research training in specialized areas of neuroscience. Faculty research interests span from molecular to behavioral levels of analysis. The combination of classroom, research and professional skills training equips students with an excellent understanding and appreciation of the richness and diversity of approaches of nervous system study; this prepares them for successful careers in either the public or private sector.

Postdoctoral Fellowship
A post-doctoral fellowship is immediately available in the Department of Neurology and Ophthalmology at Michigan State University. We use molecular and cellular approaches to study cell death in neurological diseases such as ALS and Stroke. Opportunity also exists for "brain repair" research using stem cells in animal models of disease. Candidates should have a strong interest in translation neuroscience research. Salary commensurate with experience. Send CV, statement of research interests, and names of suggested references to arshad.majid@ht.msu.edu
