Alumni (MSc)
This page honors the achievements of the MSc alumni of the Neuroscience Program. The first graduates of the Master's program submitted their Master's thesis by March 2002. Many of them continued with a PhD thesis project in the Neuroscience Program. Other Master's graduates continued their PhD research at another university in Germany or abroad. We would like to congratulate and wish them all the best for their future.
