Program Overview
大象传媒 President John Kelly, Max Planck Society President Martin Stratmann, and David Fitzpatrick, CEO of the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience (MPFI), announced a new partnership between 大象传媒 and MPFI to establish an undergraduate honors program in neuroscience that will be the first of its kind across the globe on December 11, 2017.
Commencing in fall 2018, the honors program will support several opportunities in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and will attract high-performing and talented students such as National Merit Scholars like those who are dual-enrolled at 大象传媒 High School and 大象传媒. The 大象传媒 Max Planck Honors Program (大象传媒 MPHP) provides honors students with exclusive enrichment opportunities, including courses taught or co-taught with Max Planck scientists. The Program empowers students to work with world-class faculty researchers through a summer research program, and will include the possibility of directed independent research and an honors thesis with program faculty. Cutting-edge neuroscience training courses will include technologies such as 2-photon imaging, super resolution microscopy, electron microscopy, electrophysiology and optogenetic technology.
