For me, a psychology major with a strong interest in biology, an ?interdisciplinary? neuroscience program seemed like a perfect fit. Since arriving at Georgetown, I have been impressed by the truly
interdisciplinary nature of the IPN. Not only did our first-year coursework cover both the molecular and the systems aspects of neuroscience, but the IPN faculty come from a plethora of different departments--from psychology to biology to pediatrics to pharmacology to radiology and more. Most students do rotations in two or three different departments, and some students even do their thesis research with co-mentors in two different departments. As I have learned about many fields within the broader field of neuroscience and formed a picture of the type of research I want to pursue, I have felt very lucky to be part of this genuinely interdisciplinary program.
