Neuroscience Graduate Program at UCSF
Neuroscience Formal Seminar Series
Every Thursday afternoon, the faculty, students and postdoctoral fellows in the Neuroscience Program sponsor a formal seminar by a nationally or internationally renowned neurobiologist. The speakers are chosen to represent all areas of Neurobiology and include scientists at many different stages in their careers. The program makes a special effort to include scientists who have followed different paths in developing their careers, but have been successful in achieving success. For example, in addition to speakers from large research-focused universities, the series includes speakers from smaller universities and colleges as well as pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. The visiting lecturer spends two days at U.C.S.F., during which he or she discusses scientific issues with professors. With students and postdoctoral fellows, the speaker is available to discuss both science and career choices. This formal seminar series provides an opportunity for the entire program membership from the molecular to the systems neuroscientist to remain informed about advances in this exciting field.
