Early Research Project

Before they can take the qualifying examination for the doctorate, students must complete an early research project. This independent piece of research is conducted under the oversight of a member of the integrative neuroscience faculty during one or more of a student`s required rotations. As the resulting manuscript stems from research often conducted under time constraints, the program grants some latitude on the amount of data required and/or the success of experiments undertaken. Thus, a manuscript may not meet standards required for actual publication, although a majority of the manuscripts submitted to the committee have been published. Publication is not a requirement of the program, however.
