Behavior, Sleep and Neuroscience

Studies of Behavior, Sleep and Neuroscience apply the principles of biology (in particular neurobiology) to the study of the physiological, genetic, and developmental mechanisms of behavior in animals as a way to better understand human pathology and to contribute to evidence-based practice.

Typically, investigations are at the level of nerves, neurotransmitters, brain circuitry and the basic biological processes that underlie normal and abnormal behavior.
