Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Neuroscience Research Areas
The Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Neuroscience (MCIN) Program is a multidisciplinary program of interactive research and teaching across disciplines that includes more than 30 faculty members and approximately 50 postdoctoral trainees, graduate students and research staff distributed widely across various colleges and departments of Colorado State University. This integrative approach to study of the nervous system and muscle involves the use of methods in biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, neurobiology, physiology, electrophysiology, psychology, microscopic imaging, bioinformatics and computational biology. Major areas of research to which these methods are applied are shown below with links to the faculty groups involved and the major questions being addressed.
