The program will produce students who have a research-based background in either cellular or cognitive neurosciences, reflecting the two major neuroscience research streams at UVic. The program is designed to emphasize connections between the core areas (learning and memory, synaptic function, developmental neuroscience, sensory motor systems, disease and injury) and to encourage students to develop competencies in more than one area.
