Neuroscience
Welcome from the Chair
The UK College of Medicine Department of Neuroscience is a highly collaborative, multidisciplinary, and translational environment that provides research and training opportunities ranging from molecular and cellular neurobiology to neuroimaging, from understanding basic neuroscience mechanisms to developing and testing treatments of central nervous system (CNS) disorders due to aging, injury, and disease.
Our world-class team of scientists, with more than fifteen million dollars a year in grants and contracts, conducts biomedical research in Alzheimer's disease, addiction, epilepsy, Huntington’s disease, metabolism, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and spinal cord and brain injury and repair.
