UCLA is rated the #1 Public University in the country.
Image of the Month
Image: Dorsal view of a live axolotl salamander incubated in DASPEI styryl dye, highlighting lateral line and electroreceptive sensory organs. As axolotls remain aquatic into maturity, they retain functional aquatic sensory systems. These organs are lost upon terrestrial metamorphosis in most amphibians.

#1 Educational Program
UCLA is ranked the #1 public education program in the country by US News. Programs are diverse, affordable, and mission driven.
Life Changing Research
The BRI provides multiple mechanisms to invigorate research programs and support collaborations bringing together investigators from complementary fields. These mechanisms include
Outreach That Impacts Our Communities
The BRI aims to extend scientific knowledge into the community and inspire elementary and secondary school students to explore a career in neuroscience
