The theoretical classes will have moments of theoretical exposition, discussion about the themes of the syllabus in a "flipped classroom" format whenever possible, as well as analysis of practical cases. They will be complemented with practical and laboratory classes, making use of both “wet labs” and computer rooms. Active participation in the class will be privileged, seeking to foster the ability to connect the various themes under study in a cohesive building of knowledge, as well as its connection to the practice of research in neuroscience.
The proposed methodology aims to overcome the more traditional view of isolated topics and subjects, aiming towards an integrated and applied approach based on the dynamic link between theoretical concepts and their practical application, promoting a true interdisciplinarity. Through the use of scientifically proven pedagogical strategies, as well as group discussions and detailed analysis of practical cases, students are encouraged to apply new knowledge directly to real neuroscience problems, ensuring a deep understanding of the subject. The methodology further emphasizes the development of skills crucial to modern scientific inquiry, such as critical thinking, the ability to synthesize, and effectiveness in communicating complex findings.
