University-wide Graduate Neuroscience Program Receives BU CEIT Interdisciplinary Course Development Grant

The BU Center for Excellence and Innovation in Teaching (CEIT) has awarded the Graduate Program for Neuroscience (GPN), led by Shelley J. Russek, PhD, Professor, Pharmacology & Experimental Therapeutics and Biology, a Provost CEIT Interdisciplinary Course Development Grant. As a result of this grant, the GPN will create a curriculum spanning cutting-edge developments in systems neuroscience that link basic science to future clinical application. This unique graduate curriculum will complement the BU initiative in Systems Neuroscience and will engage contributions from the community-at-large where teaching efforts are matched with outstanding BU researchers on both the Charles River and the Medical Campuses conducting work that uses both animal models and human subjects.
