国际公认的行为和细胞神经科学（BCN）系教授探索有关行为生物学基础的基本问题，包括学习和记忆的神经生物学，药物成瘾，心理病理学以及受伤后神经功能的恢复。BCN的教师是跨学科的德克萨斯A＆M神经科学研究所（TAMIN）的成员，该中心负责各种神经科学研究活动，包括课程，研讨会，专题讨论会和研究合作。BCN的研究生培训专注于使用前沿的神经科学方法进行的实验室研究，包括光化学和化学遗传学，行为电生理学，共聚焦显微镜和分子神经生物学。在培训过程中，学生与主要顾问建立了紧密的合作关系，从而开发了一系列假设驱动的实验，
The internationally recognized Behavioral and Cellular Neuroscience (BCN) faculty explores fundamental questions concerning the biological basis of behavior, including the neurobiology of learning and memory, drug addiction, psychopathology, and recovery of neural function after injury. BCN faculty affiliate with the interdisciplinary Texas A&M Institute for Neuroscience (TAMIN), which centers a variety of neuroscience activities, including courses, seminars, symposia, and research collaborations.<br><br>Graduate training in BCN focuses on laboratory research using cutting-edge neuroscience methods including opto- and chemogenetics, behavioral electrophysiology, confocal microscopy, and molecular neurobiology. In the course of their training, students develop a close collaborative relationship with a primary advisor to develop a series of hypothesis-driven experiments that culminates in a dissertation. Throughout this process, BCN faculty members work closely with students to publish their work, and most students in the program publish several scientific papers in addition to their dissertation.
