Opportunities for Graduate Studies

[Kathryn M. Murphy]

*** BEHAVIOURAL & COMPUTATIONAL NEUROSCIENCE ***

Students interested in pursuing graduate training in the field of Behavioural 
& Computational Neuroscience are encouraged to apply to the Department of 
Psychology at McMaster University. Behavioural & Computational Neuroscience 
is very active at McMaster with excellent facilities in the Department of
Psychology, Computer Science, and Communications Research Laboratory. 
Students will have an opportunity to bring experimental and computational 
approaches to bear on understanding the neural basis of behaviour.

Applications for Fall 1995 are still being accepted. Interested students are
encouraged to make informal enquiries directly with the Professor, in 
addition to a formal request for application information.

To obtain an application package write to:
