Neuroscience is the interdisciplinary scientific study of the nervous system, encompassing a variety of disciplines such as biology, psychology, physiology, and pharmacology. It focuses on understanding the structure, function, development, and disorders of the brain and nervous system. Neuroscience examines how neural circuits and networks process information, how they regulate behaviors and cognitive functions, and how they are affected by injury and disease. The field employs a range of techniques from imaging to molecular biology to investigate the complex mechanisms underlying brain activities, sensory perception, motor control, learning, memory, and emotions. The ultimate goal of neuroscience is to explain how the biological processes relate to complex human behaviors and experiences.
