Specialist in nervous system biology
Description
Neurobiologists study the general mechanisms of how the nervous system works and research related biological systems. Their objectives are to understand the biological foundations of the human mind (behaviour, emotions and intelligence), to understand the development of the nervous system and its structural and functional relationships and to know the causes that trigger neurological diseases, with the aim of developing new pharmacological, genetic or cellular therapies for their treatment. Employ knowledge and techniques from molecular and cellular biology, neuroanatomy, neurohistology, neuroimaging, neurogenetics, neuropsychology, gene therapy and neurology or systems biology for searches. The working field includes higher intellectual functions such as learning, memory and other cognitive functions, as well as their alterations in neurodegenerative diseases and brain damage that affect them, autonomous functions and eneratives and brain damage that affects them, autonomous functions and circadian rhythm. In recent years, bioinformatics advances have let the development of theoretical models to try to explain neurobiological, structural and functional events be included in this panorama, as well as the design of molecular network models involved in different nervous-system functions. Neurobiologists work in multidisciplinary environments with geneticists, pharmacists, computer engineers, electrophysiologists, chemists, psychobiologists, doctors, nurses, biocomputer engineers, mathematicians, physicists and zoologists, sharing knowledge and working together to move forward in developing diagnostic and therapeutic improvements.
