Program of Study
Seminars
Seminars by distinguished scientists are an important component of the graduate
curriculum. There is a wide range of seminars for students in the Neuroscience
Graduate Group to attend, from our formal Perspectives in Neuroscience Series
to frequent faculty recruitment talks. It is not unusual for students to
choose from over 5 seminars in a typical week during the academic year.
Our students are encouraged to attend as many seminars as possible, as they
play a large role in broadening their general neuroscience knowledge.
Perspectives in Neuroscience Seminar Series
The Perspectives in Neuroscience Series is the official formal seminar series
at the Center for Neuroscience. For this Seminar Series, the faculty host
a Pre-Perspectives Discussion of the general issues related to the monthıs
seminar topic, usually a relatively informal discussion the night before
the seminar over pizza and beer. Our graduate students are encouraged to
meet the speakers in the Perspectives Series at a student-only lunch hour
and an informal meeting following the seminar.

NeuroLunch
In addition to seminars from speakers outside UC Davis, we also have
a seminar series for labs within the Neuroscience Graduate Group, called
NeuroLunch. Each month, most of the members of a single laboratory present
their recent results to the Graduate Group, providing an opportunity for
students and postdocs to present their work. Neurolunch seminars are held
on the last Tuesday of each month. Please arrive at the Center for Neuroscience
by 11:30am to get free lunch. The seminars will start promptly at noon.
