Summary

Systems neuroscience is a sub-discipline of neuroscience and systems biology that studies the function of neural circuits and systems.

It is an umbrella term, encompassing a number of areas of study concerned with how nerve cells behave when connected together to form neural networks. At this level of analysis, neuroscientists study how different neural circuits analyze sensory information, form perceptions of the external world, make decisions, and execute movements.
