Several MCDB faculty examine a wide range of problems in neurobiology, ranging from the molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern the development of the nervous system, to the cell biology of neurons and the functioning of neural systems. In addition, several groups are interested in modeling aspects of how external stimuli are processed in the brain to result in a behavioral response.
