The Department of Neuroscience serves as the hub of research, teaching, and learning about the brain at Berkeley.
The Friends of Neuroscience Fund supports high-quality scientific training and instruction, cutting-edge research, and collaboration between our students and top scientists in the field. The fund provides unrestricted support to the department, allowing us to address the greatest needs of our undergraduates, Ph.D. students, and researchers. The department fosters research in everything from molecular to cognitive neuroscience, including computational neuroscience and neurotechnology. Our discoveries uncover principles of brain function and increase the understanding of brain disorders, advancing Berkeley’s excellence in areas of brain, mind, and computation. Your gift to this fund makes a great difference for the department and for all its members.
