Who We Are
At Neurology Research Association it is our highest objective to connect like-minded students who are interested in learning and engaging with neuroscience research outside of a classroom setting. We wish to foster student's interest in neuroscience to enable them to see the underlying importance of the brain, how it works and why it is an essential part of our lives. This club is dedicated to bringing together students from all disciplines to create an organization focused on neuroscience and give those at York University the opportunity to learn and expand ideas about a field that is not available as a program for undergraduates. We strive to promote the longevity of this club by giving students the opportunity to learn and interact with neuroscience research that will prepare them for the chance to pursue it at the graduate level and for many more years to come.
