The institute is broadly divided into three groups. We aim to provide a firm scientific research foundation to train students to become leading neuroscientists. We accomplish this by: Providing our students a deep and comprehensive background in neuroscience, providing them a solid grasp of modern experimental techniques, and keeping them abreast of the current trends and ongoing developments in this field. Inspiring our students to think and work independently, to clearly articulate their thoughts, and to execute research in a professional manner. Cultivating curiosity in the nervous system and how it underlies human behavior. For research, at the molecular, cellular, systems, and cognitive neuroscience levels, we seek to further our understanding of the mind and to develop methods to treat, to prevent, and to correct or cure mental health.
