TIGP-Interdisciplinary Neuroscience (INS)

━ Apply Now (Deadline March-31)

The Interdisciplinary Neuroscience (INS) graduate program aims to study

neuroscience using integrated approaches from chemistry, molecular

and cellular biology, physiology, imaging, and computer science.

Historically, it has been a great challenge to integrate distinct disciplines

in order to discover the causes and to explore efficacious treatments for

neurological and psychiatric disorders. Therefore, the Neuroscience

Program at Academia Sinica (NPAS) has decided to establish the INS

graduate program, in training students at the PhD level to perform

neuroscience research with multidisciplinary approaches, by teaming up

the School of Life Sciences and the School of Medicine at the National

Yang-Ming University (NYMU) in 2013 and the Institute of Clinical Medicine

at the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) in 2014. Note that NPAS is

an on-campus research program that promotes interaction and collaboration

under the goal of promoting excellence in neuroscience research and

education at the international level.

1. Neural Development/Degeneration,

2. Molecular/Cellular Neuroscience,
