Institute for Neurobiology
The Intitute for Neurobiology is constituted by the three groups Animal Physiology, Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuropharmacology (2012: Neuroethology). The scientific focus is on system neurobiology.
The institute is part of the Werner-Reichardt-Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN, excellence cluster), and the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Tübingen BCCN.
Our Master's Degree programme in biology offers the possibility to gain a master's degree or a PhD in Neurobiology. We also participate in the programs of bioinformatics, cognitive sciences and the Graduate Training Centre of Neuroscience.
