We are excited to announce a new collaboration among Big Ten neuroscientists. Neuroscience, the scientific study of the nervous system, is one of the fastest growing research fields. The scope of scientific activities involved in neuroscience has evolved over time from its roots in anatomy and psychology to include a wide range of efforts in developmental and molecular biology, mathematical modeling and physics.
This collaborative effort will involve a new multi-university seminar series focused on advances in neuroscience. The Big Ten Neuroscience Seminar Series will highlight trainees and junior faculty from groups traditionally underrepresented in neuroscience at Big Ten Universities. Participating universities include the University of Iowa, Indiana University, the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, Rutgers, Purdue and Penn State. Each month will feature one Big Ten institution.
