Research Seminars
The Center for Excellence in the Neurosciences helps support an active biomedical research seminar series at UNE. The program features lectures and discussions in the broadly defined fields of the neurosciences, molecular, cellular, and whole systems physiology, pharmacology, psychology, and the cognitive sciences. Both external experts and center-affiliated faculty participate in the program, and we aim to involve students, faculty, and professional staff who share common interests in pre-clinical and clinical neuroscience.
The seminar series runs through both the academic year and summer sessions.
We welcome your thoughts on potential future topics and speakers. Email the center at cpr@une.edu with your comments or suggestions.
