Introduction
Neuroscience is the perspective discipline that is  
supposed to solve numerous problems related to  
nervous disorders and problems with the human  
nervous system.
Nowadays, the discipline is only in its developing  
stage, and fresh and creative ideas are valuable  
for improving science.
Contd...
The student who wants to contribute to the development of neuroscience should  
learn about the current condition and structure of the science and then share the  
alternative and brand new ideas in the research proposal to convince the  
professor that the topic is worth investigating.
One should present the list of the sources and methods used for the research of  
neuroscience and complete a logical structure of the PhD Doctoral Dissertation  Pro
posal, which would reflect the student's responsible attitude towards writing.
