neurobiologists

Nervous system scientists

Neurobiologists are scientists who study the nervous system—the brain, spinal cord, and networks of neurons that govern sensation, movement, and thought.

The field spans molecular mechanisms to whole-brain function: Neurobiologists have mapped the circuits involved in memory formation.

The singular is neurobiologist.
