行为神经科学是对大脑的结构和活动及其在产生综合的适应性行为反应中的功能之间关系的一般研究。Memorial’的神经科学计划与医学系有着紧密的联系
Behavioural neuroscience is the general study of the relations between the structure and activity of the brain and its function in generating integrated adaptive behavioural responses. Memorial's neuroscience program has strong links to the Faculty of Medicine, located on the same campus in St. John's. Our major program options in psychology provide students with a solid background in the science of psychology. They culminate with small classes offering direct, hands-on experience in conducting research in a wide variety of areas such as observation of sea bird behaviour, assessment of people's attitudes, and experiments on memory and spatial learning. In addition to the B.Sc. major and honours options in behavioural neuroscience, joint programs are offered in: behavioural neuroscience/biochemistry (B.Sc. honours), behavioural neuroscience/biology (B.Sc. honours), behavioural neuroscience/nutrition (B.Sc. honours). Nutrition is the science that studies the process of taking in and utilizing food for metabolism, growth and repair. Nutritionists study how foods are converted into simpler compounds used by the body, and how food choices can lead to greater overall health, or contribute to disease development.
