This subfield deals with studying the connection between the brain, behavior, and the nervous system.

Neuroanatomy: Study of the structure and organization of the nervous system at various levels.
Neurochemistry: Study of the chemical processes which underlies the nervous system and its communications.
Neurophysiology: Study of the function and activity of the nervous system.
Neuroplasticity: Study of the brain's ability to change and adapt in response to experiences.
Sensation and Perception: Study of the process that leads to the extraction of information from the environment.
Learning and Memory: Study of how experience changes the brain to produce relatively permanent changes in behavior.
Emotional regulation and behavior: Study of the connection between emotions and behavior.
Sleep and Body Rhythms: Study of the role of sleep and circadian rhythms in behavior.
Addiction and Drugs: Study of the biological processes underlying addiction and the impact of drugs on the brain.
Developmental Neuroscience: Study of how the nervous system develops throughout the lifespan.
Psychopathology: Study of the biological underpinnings of mental illness.
Neuroendocrinology: Study of the interactions among the nervous system and the endocrine system.
Evolutionary Neuroscience: Study of how the nervous system has evolved over time.
Neuropsychology: Study of the relationship between the brain and behavior.
Comparative Neuroscience: Study of the similarities and differences between the nervous systems of various species.
Brain Imaging: Study of the use of various imaging techniques to investigate the structure and function of the brain.
Cognitive Neuroscience: Study of the biological underpinnings of cognitive function and processing.
