Home›Life Sciences›NeuroscienceGroupNeuroscienceThis group collects the Life Sciences subcategory's members whose defining work concerns neuroscience: the brain, the nervous system and animal behavior as it relates to neural function, from the founders of neuron theory to modern researchers on brain disease and cognitive function. It is kept apart from Physiology And Medicine, whose members study the body's systems broadly rather than the nervous system specifically.FactsBrowse BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonField EstablishedWell-attested1964 1Browse ByAll NeuroscienceNeuroscience12 entriesNeuroscienceFilter Results13 entriesDisciplineAllAnthropology (3)Biochemistry (1)Molecular Biology (1)Neuroscience (8)Pharmacology (1)EraAll1849 (1)1852 (1)1857 (1)1903 (1)1913 (1)1942 (1)1943 (1)1946 (1)1958 (1)1964 (1)1969 (1)1983 (1)NationalityAllCanada (1)Kenya (1)Russian Empire (1)Soviet Union (1)Spain (1)Sweden (1)United Kingdom (2)United States (5)FieldAllAnthropology (3)Archaeology (1)Biology (4)Chemistry (2)Medicine (3)Neuroscience (8)InstitutionAllAmerican Academy of Arts and Sciences (1)Arizona State University (1)California Institute of Technology (1)Karolinska Institute (1)National Academy of Sciences (2)Nobel Prize (1)Royal Society (3)University of California, San Diego (1)University of California, San Francisco (1)In GroupAllNeuroscience (12)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 13Anirvan GhoshLife Sciences3 linksArturo Álvarez-BuyllaLife Sciences2 linksCharles SherringtonLife Sciences2 linksDonald JohansonLife Sciences2 linksIvan PavlovLife Sciences4 linksJ.
