Doctor of Philosophy [Ph.D] [Neuroscience] From Cardiff University

The Neuroscience division pursues a broad range of neurobiological research, spanning from the molecular to the behavioural levels.

Research areas include:

• neuronal development
• molecular and cellular neuroscience
• neurophysiology
• synaptic plasticity, learning and memory, and
• neurodegeneration and the ageing nervous system.

We strive to integrate our research to provide a better understanding of the function of the healthy nervous system and the mechanisms leading to neurological disease states. A primary objective is to translate our knowledge into pharmacological and cell based therapies and improved clinical practice.
