Welcome to the homepage of the Graduate Students’ Association for Neuroscience.
Whether you’re a prospective student looking for information, a current student looking to stay in the loop, or just someone curious about our organization, you’ll find what you’re looking for on this site.
Under the social and academic tabs, you’ll discover what we do to help students succeed in their degrees while thoroughly enjoying themselves. Wellbeing will bring you to the resources that we and others offer to help our students thrive over the full course of their degree, and to help them through whatever challenges arise. The finance tab shows you where we get our money from, and what we do with it. Finally, the committee tab will bring you to the people who make it happen.
We’re always looking for ways to better serve our students, so please reach out to us at the links below if you have questions, feedback, suggestions, or would like to collaborate on a project. As the dorsal subnucleus of the lateral parabrachial nucleus said to the medial preoptic subnucleus—stay cool, everyone.
