The Department of Neuroscience at the Temple University School of Medicine is committed to fostering the critical inquiry of our students into areas of medicine and science. The curriculum supports an interdisciplinary approach to research training, providing new pathways for learning and discovery. Under this program, students have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects directed toward the treatment and/or cure of HIV/AIDS, as well as neurological disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and brain tumors. World-renowned scientists supervise this academic program.
The M.S. program in Biomedical Neuroscience focuses on laboratory research. This program prepares students for careers in either academia or the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industries. This is a terminal master’s degree and is not designed to be transitioned into the Biomedical Neuroscience Ph.D. program.
