I love how you said the types of people who are scientists tend to be the same types of people who are artists and creatives. Most of my family are musicians and painters and things but none are scientists. I've had a lifelong dream of being a famous singer, but nowadays I find myself really into science and having dreams of being a neuroscientist. It was weird at first because I thought "where did this new found passion come from? It's totally random." But it all makes sense. I just love learning about the world around me!
I would suggest looking into big 5 personality traits, mainly openness to experience. If you are generally creative, there's a good chance you have an interest in abstract ideas, which is one of the subset of openness. If abstract thinking and ideas fascinate you, there's a good chance you'd like working as a researcher in neuro.
I'm pursuing B.Sc. (H) Neuroscience and i wanna go for Masters in science (neuroscience ) rather than med school but one thing that really scares me is that all the great neuroscientist have attended med school , so am i gonna miss a lot by not going for med school but instead going for ms and doctorate ...
I’m in third year med school rn and considering pursuing phd cognitive neuroscience instead of md. Would like to learn your experience. Let me know if you wanna connect
I see it's been a while since your comment and I have the same concern nowadays. I hope you see this reply and provide some insight for me it'd be immensely helpful.
I liked this video!I have graduated this past summer in neuroscience at the University of Dundee; I know I want to pursue this career but after 2 years that I have been working actively in labs, I find it really hard to motivate myself waiting on replies from supervisors to get a PhD position. It has been now more than 6 months "off-bench" and I could not miss it more. If any out there has any valuable tip or suggestion to keep my hopes high, please share .
I am really trying very hard to get accepted into a college I can afford. Looks like I will not get to ever study neuroscience. Admission Officers are really judgy
I am biologist originally with specialization in environmental biology. I am thinking in getting a Phd and a post phd in neuroscience of an erection. I wanted to cure erect al dysfunctional a side effects of antidepressants. Can you direct me please. I am in Poland.
There's this conspiracy theory that talented artists usually have poor analytic thinking, that its usually not possible to possess both talents... Me as a musical artist am quite sure i possess both... I am really thinking of studying neuroscience... It's so fascinating... Even more than music in my opinion, while i am still not entirely sure how well I'll do I am so curious to figure it out
I really enjoyed your video, I have a few questions for you if you don't mind. Recently I got early medically retired from the navy as a avionics technician due to a rare disease out of my control. Is the field of nueroecience the field that researches nuero diseases and treatments etc? I was genetically diagnosed with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Spastin mutation uncomplicated, and from my understanding there is no cure or treatment plans other than symptoms associated such as baclofen for spasticity etc, with that, I realize I can either be mad and upset about my situation, or I can do something positive about it. Is there any specific fields in nuerology thats responsible for the research and treatments into rare nuerological diseases etc? Thank you.
I have a question.It may sound silly. If one is unable to make it into the medical school,can one become a neuroscientist instead of becoming a doctor?
@@aimenbilal3106 Not sure where you are located, but in the U.S. a Bachelor's degree is required along with fulfillment of pre-reqs and taking MCAT before entering Medical School. So summary, high school --> undergrad (four years) -> Medical school (four years) --> Residency (3-7yrs depending on specialty) --> Board Certifications --> practicing physician. Hope that helps.

I just graduated from Harvard med school and am looking at neurosurgery and this helped immensely, Cheers!

How are your plans going? Curious to know!
Yea what are you doing now ?

Same here
Which is better neuroscientist or neurosurgery
neuroscientist ,is rly fun and for those who struggle with mental illness its relatable

Neuromuscular diseases.

+Ibrahim Khan Yes. PhD in neuroscience.
thanks
do i need bachelor degree to go into any medical school or i can go to medical school after 12

do you have to work with animals?
Not necessarily, you can work with pre harvested brains or neurons, even neuron digital models, so not really
I want to ask a question, I have a ba in linguistics , is it possible to do a masters degree in neurosciences? or i can't?
Came here to decide if I’m doing Neuroscience it something else
Haha us
What did you decide btw ?
@@tasfiahnabani8719 Same. Could you tell me what you've decided? Thanks :)
@@gaurichaturvedi3529 I've decided to take a totally different route. I'm gonna do my BBA from IBA in my country.
@@tasfiahnabani8719 Thx. all the best!
which is better a bs or ba in Neuroscience?
It's always good to have a BS in a science field. Arts is for more literature & theory. Science is more hands on & technical.
I hope you get your traveling wish
Bench?
I think what they mean by bench is the lab table where they do the work. That is referred to as a bench.
