UMD's Gamma chapter of the Nu Rho Psi (Neuroscience) National Honor Society is open to students of any major or pre-professional track on campus!! If you're interested in science, research, STEM, medicine, surgery, or neuroscience in general, please apply to become a member of our society! You don't have to be a Neuroscience major in order to apply! Below is a description of our society:


Nu Rho Psi is a national neuroscience honor society. Our goal is to expand and encourage interest in neuroscience at UMD and to delve deeper into the nuances and interdisciplinarity of the neuroscience field. We explore not only the intricacies of the brain but how adjacent fields of study intersect as well; we look at perspectives from biology, computer science and AI, psychology, and many other diverse fields of knowledge. As a society, we encourage professional and social interaction in the field among students, faculty, and other professionals. The society also promotes community service work and other humanitarian work that ultimately spreads awareness of neuroscience and its benefits to the individual and to society.
