	Neuroscience - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Neuroscience is a field of study that deals with the structure, function, development, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, and pathology of the nervous system, consisting of the myriad nerve pathways running throughout the body.
		Some researchers believe that cognitive neuroscience provides a bottom-up approach to understanding the mind and consciousness that is complementary to, or may replace, the top-down approach of psychology.
		Molecular and cellular neuroscience, which integrate neurobiology with neurochemistry with the goal of understanding the cellular and chemical mechanisms of normal and abnormal brain function.

	Hamilton College - Academics - Neuroscience
		The neuroscience program at Hamilton is operated jointly by the Departments of Psychology and Biology, and students in the program explore the fascinating, rapidly changing intersection of those disciplines â“ the biological basis of behavior.
		Recent senior fellows in neuroscience have studied the neurochemistry of octopamine, patterns of human motion, integration of sensory information by single neurons, evoked potential correlates of cognitive processing, brain mechanisms of reward, and tactile psychophysics.
		Neuroscience students have access to lab facilities for scanning and transmission electron microscopes, tissue culture, analytical neurochemistry, molecular biology, neuroanatomical research, intracellular and extracellular single neuron recording, voltage and patch clamping, eye movement tracking, evoked-potential recording, and tactile psychophysics.

	The Philosophy of Neuroscience
		One of the first issues to arise in the ‘philosophy of neuroscience’ (before there was a recognized area) was the localization of cognitive functions to specific neural regions.
		Craver's point is both that explanations in neuroscience are mechanistic, multi-level and causal, and that explanation in neuroscience.
		John Bickle (2003) suggests that the working concept of reduction in the neurosciences consists of the discovery of systematic relationships between interventions at lower levels of organization (as they are recognized in cellular and molecular neuroscience) and higher level behavioral effects (as they are described in psychology).

	Princeton - Weekly Bulletin 2005/11/21 - New neuroscience institute will bridge disciplines, take innovative approach
		Princeton NJ — The University is expanding its teaching and research capabilities in neuroscience — considered by many the next field ripe for significant scientific breakthroughs — by launching an institute that will bridge many disciplines and take a new approach to studying the brain and nervous system.
		Under the working title of the Princeton Institute in Neuroscience, the entity was created in embryonic form last spring under the leadership of Jonathan Cohen, the Eugene Higgins Professor of Psychology, and David Tank, the Henry Hillman Professor in Molecular Biology, who has a joint appointment in physics.
		They view the enterprise as a stimulus for teaching and research in neuroscience and related fields, as well as an impetus for collaboration and education in disciplines as wide ranging as economics and philosophy.
