We have robust Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. training programs in Neuroscience and a strong postdoctoral training program. Our trainees are funded through a combination of stipends from the College of Graduate Studies, individual NIH and other awards, and NIH institutional T32 training grants. Graduate training includes a core neuroscience curriculum and electives on a wide range of topics in neuroscience. In addition, we have a well-rounded departmental seminar series with invited speakers from leading institutions across the nation.
The MUSC Neuroscience Graduate Program fosters learning in a highly collaborative research environment.
Neuroscience Department Task Force
The mission of the Neuroscience Departmental Task Force (NDTF), currently co-chaired by Drs. Antonieta Lavin and Patrick Mulholland, is to help advance the impartiality, respect, and fairness goals of our department. The NDTF comprises volunteer representatives from across the entire department to ensure that broad perspectives and experiences are included in formative and summative assessments of our initiatives and departmental progress. It also develops and implements programs that provide education and training opportunities for our faculty, students, and staff to support and promote opportunities to enhance a culture of respect for all.
