NYU Shanghai – PhD in Neuroscience

Under the Ph.D. in Neurology at the University of New York, Shanghai, the neurosystem and brain function orientation is focused on the information-processing and control mechanisms of the nervous system at the molecular, cell, neural circuit and system levels, covering the key frontier areas of cytological and molecular neuroscience, system and computational neuroscience, cognitive and behavioural neurology, and neuroimage and nervous technology. The project emphasizes interdisciplinary research methods that combine experimental neuroscience, quantitative analysis, computational modelling and data science, and explores in depth the mechanisms of neurons irritation and synaptic plasticity, neuropathodynamics, brain network coding and regulation and how they are achieved in complex behaviour and cognitive functions.

The research focuses on neurons and synapses, neuropaths of the sensory and motor system, neuromechanical mechanisms for learning and memory, the basics of the brain network for decision-making and emotional management, neurodevelopment and plasticity, the basic mechanisms of neuroactivity and mental disorders, optical genetics and multimodular neuroimaging, large-scale neurodata analysis and machine learning models. Through a combination of theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, high-precision electron physiology and optical imaging platforms and behavioural experiments, the project aims to promote the systematic development of innovation from basic brain science to neurotechnology and computational models.

The project places a high priority on multidisciplinary cross-cutting, integrating neuroscience with biology, psychology, computing, engineering and artificial intelligence methods, and providing a systematic scientific support for future brain science research, neurotechnological innovation and brain intelligence development.
