HELP : NEUROSCIENCE

[Prantik Mazumder]

 I have completed Bachelors and Masters program in Chemical Engineering.
 Recently, I have become very interested in Neuroscience and may like
 to pursue graduate study and research in this field.  But I don't have
 any background in this field.  I am wondering what kind of academic
 preparation or background one would need for graduate study in
 Neuroscience and whether it would still be possible for someone like
 me coming from a very remote field of study to get into a good program.
 
 I also want to know what kind of research goes on in this field.
 Which schools or institutes have good program in Neuroscience and 
 who are the people that I may need to get in touch with...
 
 Any help will be highly appreciated..
 
 Thanks in advance,
 
 Prantik Mazumder
