I am far from being super knowledgeable about this, but I just spend the past 2 months working on an internship that is centered around computational neuroscience and I plan to pursue it long term. I am doing a neuroscience major and a computer science minor (still undergrad), so I kinda have a good idea of the sort of background you get from a comp sci degree. Here's my take: Most of what I do right now is centered around brain simulations and inverse problem. Most of the knowledge I have used so far revolves around math and comp sci stuff. The neurophysiological components of the simulations are relatively straightforward, although it does help to have knowledge of how neurons work and how populations of neurons can behave. But there are a lot of existing models that you can use right away and you don't need extensive knowledge of neurophysiology to do so. If you want to make custom models and work "under the hood" of simulations then you'd need to catch up with neurophysiology and math. There are also other branches in the large field of computational neuroscience, and often you can start with the branch that is closest to your current field and work your way to the branch that interest you most. The thing with computational neuroscience is that it is highly interdisciplinary, so everyone is bound to have to learn a lot of things before and during a project. The good thing about that is that if you don't come from a neuroscience background you won't be in a worse position than someone who came from a neuroscience program with focus on biology/physiology, you will only have to learn different parts than those people (they will learn comp sci/math stuff and you will learn bio/physio stuff). So, will it be easy? No. But will it be harder for you than for someone that comes from physics, biology, mathematics, neuroscience, etc.? Not really either. If you are interested in computational neuroscience, this shouldn't be a reason not to pursue it. Hope this helps.

You are welcome! :)

Hi!! I'm currently in my final year of Bsc Biotechnology and I'm really interested in neuroscience do you think it's wise to change my major to MSc neuroscience? And the carriers would still apply?

I think if you really want to do neuroscience, you should follow that!

Hi! I was wondering what types of math is applied in neurology and do you find it difficult?

Not much at all! Have to do some basic chemistry and in neurophysiology there can be some maths but it isn't too much

I'm about to come Uk to pursue bsc neuroscience, can you please mention the minimum salary i can get right after my neuroscience degree during placement years?

Can you apply for a graduate medical degree in the UK if you got your bachelors in the US?

I am thinking to do Undergrad on Neuro-science on Edinburgh University... 🤔.. should I ?

Edinburgh is an amazing school - especially for neuroscience! One of the best research hubs for Neuro in the UK in my opinion :)

Hi Juliua, thank you for the amazing video! I've just finished my second year for my neuroscience BSc but idk what to do next. I really want that patient interaction but I'm worried I'm not smart enough for medicine and as for clinical scientists, is there a ranking that you keep learning more than the same routinely job?

Girl, if you end up wanting to go the med school route, don’t tell yourself you aren’t “smart” enough. Being a good doctor and med student is largely about hard work and actual care for other people. Intelligence on its own doesn’t mean anything in any field.

You could look into neuropsychology as a career, which does enable you to interact with patients (especially if you work in your own practice, a hospital or in a rehabilitation setting) and do research without medical school. The focus of these professionals is more on the brain-behaviour relationship and those disorders.

Can we do a BSc in neuroscience and then start a postgraduate medecine and study neurosurgery but also oncology? Is it possible to specialise in both of these during postgraduate medecine?

I think you could do both if you are interested in doing neuro-oncology!

Would you be able to get in the same careers if you did cognitive neuroscience?

I think you would be able to yes! Many of these careers don't need the 'core science' modules except it may be more favourable for medicine and clinical sciences!

I am a student in Nigeria studying anatomy. When I am done I plan to do msc in Neuroscience then PhD too. Can this part lead me to clinical Neuroscience and can I then propose for medcine? Moreso is all the Neuroscience same. Like if I study molecular biology and some stuff as a course, can I then study PhD in a related field and become a clinical neuroscientist. Or am I to stuck to a particular one? Please reply

Hi, very interested in the post graduarte mediacl degree

I can do MSc neuroscience after BA psychology

Hello, I’m currently in year 11 and I have chose Biology, Psychology and Chemistry for my A-levels, are these good subjects to choose? But I don’t know if I’m limiting myself with not choosing maths or physics instead of psychology. Do you need to choose maths/physics or english for A-levels to go into neuroscience?

These sound great! For neuro, you need chemistry and another science normally so you are set!
