The Neuroscience Program at the University of Wyoming offers an interdepartmental education and research experience leading to the Ph.D. degree in Neuroscience. The Neuroscience Program emphasizes systems and integrative approaches and our goal is to is provide the students with the necessary background to be broadly trained research neuroscientists. Special strengths of the Neuroscience Program at Wyoming are the degree of faculty commitment to student education and research training as well as encouragement of highly individualized programs of research and study. Faculty assistance and research facilities are readily available to meet the needs of individual students. A particular emphasis of the program is the utilization of novel mammalian and nonmammalian species for neurobiological studies. Faculty and student work employs diverse methodology, including neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, gene chips, immunohistochemistry, and various behavioral test procedures. Student-faculty interactions are fostered through the weekly Seminar in Neuroscience. This environment facilitates collaborative interactions between students and diverse faculty for the application of multiple research techniques to a given research problem. Students interested in combining research and practice in Audiology with Neuroscience research may apply to the Ph.D. in Neuroscience with an emphasis in Audiology. Students with a emphasis in Audiology take the core Neuroscience Program requirements, including class work and research, and courses that focus on audiological principles and practice, and clinical training in audiology, and culminating research investigation in an audiological area of interest.
The Neuroscience Center at the
University of Wyoming has both a teaching and research
mission. The Center is supported by a
NIH Center of Biomedical Research Excellence grant. |
