Hi, I have a BSc degree in Neuroscience and would like to work in neuroprosthesis what should I do in terms of acquiring skills to be able otwork in the field, so far I have not been able to get any direction from any company or teacher i have contacted. Is anyone in the field and if so could help me get into it

I am a fourth-year Finance student in Canada, and I have done 3 internships so far as part of my program. I came to Canada 5 years ago for school. I went into the major knowing it’s not my favourite, but decided to give it a try since it’s a “realistic” option considering my position at the time. I have worked really hard, and after the pandemic I realize I do not want to do this for the rest of my life. I have been doing okay at school and work. I plan to return to my employer after graduation, or apply to another in this field since I already had some work experience to sustain myself.

I have always had an interest in psychology and more recently neuropsychology, and I hope to restart my undergraduate education. I only took math courses and mandatory courses in high school in Canada, but I have studied sciences in my native language and did well in biology and chemistry.

I’m considering the options I have: I will take out student loans once I’m a permanent resident, and start anew at another college/university in Biology/Cognitive Science as a part time student. Then with decent grades I will try to go into research. Doing all of this while working full time it’s a heavy workload, and I do have the tendency to overload myself.

I’m fine with not being well-off, I think being able to study and work in the field more aligned with my values would help. I want to study neurodegenerative diseases and understand trauma better, from a neuroscience perspective. I can be a number person, but I don’t have the entrepreneurial spirit, nor do I feel happy in Finance focusing on cutting down on costs and maximizing revenues for companies.

Could I get some advice please?

Hi all! I’m starting my PhD in neuro this fall and I hope to transition to an industry position after the completion of my degree. Are there any specific techniques that you would recommend for someone hoping for a career in industry? Or other opportunities that you would suggest I seek out to make myself a more competitive candidate?

Hi. I just graduated with a BS in neuroscience. I don’t have a great relationship with my family and its no longer emotionally safe for me to live at home (long story). I would love to do something in the field of neuroscience or psychology but I don’t know what I could do with only a bachelor’s. I do have 3 years of experience in human subjects research (mostly cognition and sensory perception in children with ASD). If anyone has any ideas for things I can do that could make me enough money that I could move out that would be amazing. I live in Southern California so an apartment is at least 1400$ a month. My current research job is only part time. Please help. I’m also open to other jobs as long as they don’t involve physical labor because I am disabled.

I'm starting my master's in psychology in the UK this year, and I plan to work in a lab for two years post graduation before going for a PhD. I would like to work in neuroscience and get an industry job after graduation.

Would there be enough such jobs in the UK? Would my work ex in the UK hold any weight for US applications or should I just apply to labs in the US directly? What country has better outcomes for such work? I'm an international student so I'll require visa sponsorship in the US as well. Everything I've read seems to indicate that the US has more job opportunities, but i would love to hear from people within the field!
