Basic Science and Translational Research: Neurobiology & Genetics
The basic science of developmental neurobiology explores the elementary processes by which brain cells generate and operate. Discoveries about the way that neurons form and communicate make this field one of the most promising avenues for increasing our understanding of the brain and mind. Genetics research in psychiatry is an exciting, rapidly advancing field that looks at the etiology of disease, as well as works to identify genetic predictors of treatment response to psychiatric disorders. Translational research links many of the areas of basic science to clinical problems.
