Ohio State University Department of Neurology is enjoying tremendous growth. As a program prioritized by the university, we are well on our way to doubling our faculty, and we continue to expand an innovative and rigorous research portfolio. Dedicated to multidisciplinary collaboration, our goal is to accurately diagnose, treat and improve the lives of individuals with neurological diseases, while increasing our understanding of the causes of neurological disease and discovering more effective treatments. An equally important mission is to educate and foster the careers of the next generation of neurologists and translational neuroscientists.

Faculty members in our Department have new or renovated laboratory facilities, with access to core facilities that can serve as functional drivers for trainee research projects. The Department has major foci in redox and cell signaling (facilitated by an NIGMS funded COBRE grant; see the link to the COBRE program within the department website), proteomics and mass spectrometry (with an MUSC supported core facility) and mass spectrometry based imaging. Moreover, MUSC has committed to supporting a drug discovery program, which provides opportunities for early stage discovery and development of new drug entities. Present faculty research interests encompass new drug discovery/development, cancer therapeutics, cell signaling and stress responses, redox pathways, G protein signaling in aging and neurological disorders, kinase signaling, epigenetics and cancer, ALS and associated neurological pathologies, proteomics and mass spectrometry based imaging.

The Neuroscience Training Program at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine 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. Research within the department ranges from investigating the development of the nervous system, synaptic plasticity and the molecular and cellular mechanisms of learning and memory to the neural basis of higher brain function such as perception and decision-making. Our faculty are also at the forefront of research into the molecular mechanisms of neurological and psychiatric diseases, including Parkinson''s, Alzheimer''s'' disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), schizophrenia, depression, drug addiction, mental retardation and autism.

The Department of Pharmacology offers programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The primary objective of these programs is to prepare candidates for research and teaching careers. The first few semesters are devoted primarily to core course work designed to give the student a broad background in the fundamental theories and techniques of pharmacology.During this time, the student gains exposure to methods for the solution of research problems by working in the laboratories of various faculty members culminating in a selection of a thesis advisor. The department has spacious laboratories equipped with modern instruments that are used by both faculty and students in such research areas as biochemical, molecular, cardiovascular, autonomic, clinical, and neuropharmacology, drug metabolism, cancer research and toxicology.

The Division of Medical Sciences was established at Harvard University in 1908. The Division was designed to provide students wishing to pursue careers in research and teaching with a broad education in basic biomedical science fields and specialization in one of them. Classroom and laboratory instruction are conducted primarily by the 450 faculty members of the basic sciences departments and affiliated hospital laboratories of the Harvard Medical School (HMS) in Boston. The Ph.D. degree is awarded by the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS) of Harvard University. For 100 years, this fruitful collaboration has spawned research achievements across the spectrum from basic science to experimental medicine. Since 1909, over 2,000 Division graduates, including six Nobel Laureates, have gone on to distinguished careers in biomedical research, university teaching, and a number of increasingly diverse careers.

The Program in Neuroscience is an independent research and graduate training program at Florida State University, which is a Carnegie Research I university. The Program includes faculty from the departments of Biological Science, Biomedical Science, Mathematics, and Psychology. Its objective is to promote interdisciplinary basic research into neural processes, including the biological mechanisms underlying behavior, and to provide advanced graduate training leading to the Ph.D. degree in Neuroscience. The program maintains specialized research support services and personnel, and provides special courses and symposia on contemporary neuroscience issues. Each semester the program brings to Florida State prominent neuroscientists who give colloquia and hold informal discussions with graduate students and faculty. Neuroscience, the study of brain and nervous system function, encompasses many of the unanswered questions about the nature of humans and other species. It stakes out a territory along the frontier of human knowledge where research can make a real difference to understanding. Traditionally, the primary emphasis of the FSU program has been on sensory processes. This focus is now supplemented by research and instruction in the biophysics and electrophysiology of excitable cells, neurotransmitter and hormone action, neural development and plasticity, circadian rhythms, feeding and regulatory processes, and the genetic bases of neurobiology and behavior. Broad interdisciplinary training is emphasized in the early years so that students develop skills in approaching research problems with multiple levels of analysis, from molecular to behavioral.

The establishment of the Neuroscience Center at Dartmouth (NCD) in 2002 has produced a new and unique interdisciplinary group whose mission is to foster collaborative and interactive research and education in the neurosciences. Training opportunities in neuroscience include undergraduate minor/major in Neuroscience, graduate training toward a Ph.D., and postdoctoral training. The NCD draws from the strengths in three key areas: Clinical, Cognitive & Behavioral, and Molecular/Cellular/Systems Neuroscience. It is the vision of its researchers to produce and disseminate new knowledge, and in doing so train and educate the next generation of neuroscientists. Interactions among members of the neuroscience community are enhanced and foster a highly interactive atmosphere through the development of this integrated Center. By promoting multidisciplinary efforts in both basic and applied research, the Center''s scientists will contribute to human health and well being by increasing our understanding of the mechanisms underlying nervous system function, both in health and disease. This will lead to valuable discoveries that translate into novel pharmaceutical agents and therapeutic approaches for the treatment of a variety of central nervous system diseases and disorders. The research facilities are located in Hanover, NH, Lebanon, NH (Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center) and the Veteran Affairs Medical Center in White River Junction, Vt. Research interests comprise a broad range of studies within the neurosciences and provide a wide range of research opportunities for students. In addition, the NCD augments the education of residents and fellow at the clinical level who have academic neuroscience interests.

It is the beginning of an image database on Drosophila development and genetics, especially on expression patterns of genes (enhancer trap lines, cloned genes).The concept of FlyView includes compatibility to FlyBase, the main Drosophila database. Our aim is to establish the possibilty to compare images on the computer screen and to search for special patterns at different developmental stages. Therefore, all images are accompanied by text descriptions that can be used for searching.
