The Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences (GSN-LMU)

The Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences (GSN-LMU) is devoted to one of the fundamental questions in modern science: How does the brain work?

In the GSN-LMU, young scientists from the fields of cellular and systemic neurobiology, computational neuroscience, neurology, neurocognitive psychology and neurophilosophy are brought together in a unique, horizontally integrated network. This broad neuroscientific context provides a mixture of various methods and thus opens a space for new clusters of questions, innovative approaches and concepts. The program can be individually tuned to the specific needs of a student. It is interlinked with an international Master program supported by the Elitenetzwerk Bayern and offers a fast-track access to selected students holding a Bachelor’s degree.
