This MSc programme will contribute to Pisa’s reputation of excellence in Neuroscience, pioneered by Giuseppe Moruzzi in the 1950s and 60s and developed thereafter by Lamberto Maffei.
Owing to this legacy, Pisa offers a very active and competitive scientific environment for studies in Neuroscience.
The aim of the course is to provide interdisciplinary training thatspans across a wide variety of experimental and computational approaches to contemporary Neuroscience, from the molecular and cellular level to the analysis of higher cognitive functions in the human brain.
The course is designed to not only attract students possessing a Bachelor’s (or equivalent) degree in a strictly biological field, but also students coming from a wide range of different educational routes.
