By Dr. Jitendra Kumar Sinha

Neurosciences is a collective term used for all streams of sciences together that deal with the study and understand the structure, function and disorders of the nervous system including brain. The fundamental aspects include the molecular and cellular properties of neurons and glial cells, and the intricate circuits made by them.

This wonderful stream of science tries to take deep dive not only to understand the anatomy, cytology, physiology and pathology of brain, but also the more complex questions pertaining to the learning, memory, behaviour, intelligence, perception, and consciousness.
