Neuroscience involves the scientific examination of the nervous system in both healthy and diseased conditions. It investigates the complex processes that enable thinking, movement, perception, learning, and memory. Due to the profound effects of neurological and psychiatric disorders on health and society, this research is vital in medicine. A key aim is to identify the underlying causes of major brain diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Schizophrenia, and Depression, and develop more effective treatments.
