Venue description

Florida State University and the Department of Psychology are committed to a policy of equal opportunity and pluralism, thus enhancing diversity and assuring a climate that values, and respects the worth and dignity of all persons. During the last century the major universities in the Western world embraced a strong research orientation, and in psychology this has led to great progress in understanding the determinants of behavior. At Florida State University, psychology has always had a strong research focus. The department's faculty and large support staff operate research programs that have won national and international recognition and attract high levels of research grant support from federal and state agencies. The Department of Psychology has extensive research and computing facilities available to faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students. The support facilities include fully staffed and equipped electronic, computer, and instrument design machine shops that are operated by the Psychology Department technology support group. Instruction in behavioral, physiological, and neuroanatomical techniques is provided both in formal course work and in laboratory settings. A molecular neuroscience laboratory provides equipment and training for studies of gene cloning and gene expression, as well as techniques to measure levels of hormones and neurotransmitters.
