    The deadline is coming up for applications to the

                  Johns Hopkins Neuroscience Graduate Program
                  http://neuroscience.jhu.edu/gradprogram.asp

                       DEADLINE: January 4, 2002

    For the readers of this group, I should emphasize that
    applications from students interested in computational
    neuroscience and systems level neuroscience are particularly
    encouraged. Systems level research in the Program ranges from
    single unit recordings in behaving nonhuman primates to
    psychophysical and functional MRI studies in humans and is
    complemented by training in computational neuroscience.

    The Neuroscience Training Program at The Johns Hopkins University
    School of Medicine includes over sixty faculty members in the
    Departments of Neuroscience, Psychology, Cognitive Science, Molecular
    Biology and Genetics, Biological Chemistry, Physiology, Biomedical
    Engineering, Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences, Ophthalmology,
    Neurology, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Medicine,
    Otolaryngology, and Pathology. The Training Program addresses the
    broad areas encompassed by modern neuroscience. The purpose of the
    Program is to train doctoral students for independent research and
    teaching in neuroscience. It is the goal of the Program to ensure that
    candidates for the Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. degrees obtain a background
    covering molecular/cellular and systems/cognitive approaches to
    neuroscience, as well as receive training that brings them to the
    forefront of research in their particular area of interest. A series
    of core courses in neuroscience, along with advanced electives,
    seminar series, laboratory rotations and original independent
    dissertation research form the Neuroscience Graduate Training
    Program.

    The Neuroscience Training Program and the Neuroscience Department are
    among the oldest in the United States and date back to 1980. The
    faculty of the Neuroscience Training Program have trained about 250
    Ph.D. and M.D./Ph.D. students and 500 postdoctoral fellows over the
    past ten years. All doctoral candidates receive full tuition remission
    and a stipend. Currently, about 90 doctoral candidates and 150
    postdoctoral fellows work in the laboratories of faculty in the
    Neuroscience Program.
