The Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute is pleased to introduce our 2023 cohorts of Mind, Brain, Computation and Technology (MBCT) student members and NeuroTech trainees.
As technological advancements enable scientists to record, measure, and manipulate brain activity at unprecedented scales, these programs select trainees who are spearheading innovation in this domain.
Through collaborative efforts, MBCT and NeuroTech trainees will use new approaches to address interesting neurotechnology and neurocomputation questions. Working with engineers, doctors and scientists to develop new technologies to help patients, advance computing and better understand the brain, these students exemplify Wu Tsai Neuro’s mission to cultivate the next generation of neuroscience leaders.
We encourage you to scroll through these remarkable cohorts and get to know the next generation of innovative leaders in the neurosciences.
Mind, Brain, Computation and Technology Student Members
The MBCT student membership program supports PhD students from empirical, computational, technical or theoretical backgrounds as they stretch beyond the traditional boundaries of their department or lab to learn complementary interdisciplinary approaches, advancing their research and helping them develop into leaders and innovators in their field.
