An important component of the mission of the Neurological Sciences Institute is graduate education.
Inquiries are welcome from students who are interested in doing research in our laboratories.
The Neuroscience Graduate Program at OHSU uses a multidisciplinary approach that transcends traditional basic science departments. Participating faculty for the program are derived from both basic science and clinical departments. Much of the basic science research has applications towards clinical diseases such as drug addiction, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, cerebral stroke and brain chemotherapy. The Neuroscience Graduate Program faculty at the Neurological Sciences Institute extends opportunities to do research in behavioral, cellular, developmental, molecular, and systems neurosciences. The typical training program is highly individualized depending on the demands of the field of interest but will include a core of requisite training appropriate for all biomedical sciences.
