Master in Biological Sciences mention Neurosciences

The Master Program in Biological Sciences, mention in Neurosciences, aims to provide fundamental knowledge in the area to professionals interested in the origin, development, normal and pathological functioning of the nervous system at its different levels of biological organization, from the molecule to behavior. The Program is academic in nature, seeking to provide its graduates with the necessary tools for the development of research capacities in neuroscience, either as independent professionals or associated with research groups or centers, or its application to teaching activities.

General objective:

Deliver fundamental, theoretical and practical knowledge about the development and normal and pathological functioning of the nervous system at its different levels of biological organization, from the molecule to behavior.

Specific objectives:

1.- Deliver theoretical knowledge about development, and the normal and pathological functioning of the nervous system at different levels of biological organization.
2.- Deliver experimental tools and to develop research at various levels of complexity, from the molecule to the behavior, in a focused way and oriented to the development of an experimental thesis.
3.- Train our students in the critical analysis of scientific information in the area of Neuroscience, generated from various sources.
4.-Train (or prepare) our students to disseminate the results of scientific work in the area, whether their own or those of others, by oral and written means.
5.- Deliver (or favor) a multidisciplinary environment for the development of the student and their insertion to research groups.
