Since 1994, the Center for Complex Systems and Brain Sciences at Florida
Atlantic University, Boca Raton, has been the home of a unique
cross-disciplinary Ph.D program in Complex Systems and Brain Sciences. The
aim of this program is to create a new kind of brain behavioral scientist
who will be biologically and mathematically literate, able to relate
experimental data with theoretical/computational modeling and bring new
ways of thinking and doing into the field of neuroscience. The courses are
research oriented and consist of a core curriculum in neuroscience
(including behavioral, computational and cognitive neuroscience),
psychology, physics, and the mathematical concepts and tools of complex,
nonlinear dynamical systems. Students learn how medical imaging
techniques, laboratory research, and analytical and computational methods
can be combined to offer powerful and unique insights into the human
brain, its relation to mind and behavior and disorders thereof.
Our PhD graduates have pursued academic and research careers at
Institutions such as Harvard, Brown, Stanford, UCSF, Emory, New York
University, the Salk and Neurosciences Institutes and various intramural
research sections at NIH in addition to private industry such as IBM and
Mathworks, the US Air Force, NASA and NRL. Our postdoctoral fellows have
distinguished themselves as leaders in neuroscience and related fields
throughout the world.
