Program description
We offer a research-based training program. Graduate students work closely with faculty on research projects, learning how to design, conduct, analyze experiments. Students will also learn to present their work, both in written and oral formats. One particular strength of our department is “behavioural neuroscience” which focuses on the relationship between brain and behavior. Research topics in our department are diverse, including animal social behavior, learning and memory, decision making, addiction, developmental plasticity (including the effects of brain injury, stress and drugs on brain development), neural coding, motor control, comparative neuroanatomy, comparative behavioural analysis, attention, and robotics.
The Neuroscience program is part of the Canadian Centre for Behavioural Neurosience. Our facilities include:
a wide range of apparatus for studying animal behavior, including water mazes, radial mazes and operant chambers
microscopes for the analysis of neural tissue, including confocal microscopes, high resolution slide scanners, an electron microscope, as well as standard light microscopes.
set-ups for in-vivo imaging at both macroscopic and microscopic scales
a dedicated molecular biology lab for cellular imaging using immunohistochemistry and in-situ hybridization
a dedicated Western blot biology lab
nuclear magnetic resonance imaging suitable for metabolomic analysis
Six high density multi-channel recording systems for parallel single-cell electrophysiology and local field potential studies in awake behaving animals
A high-performance parallel computer cluster
A high-density human electroencephalography (EEG) recording system
A new 3T human MRI
A 4T animal MRI
extensive video analysis facilities, including a Peak Performance motion analysis system
