Okay, I was looking everywhere to find a bio-psychology bachelor but did not find it. I bio-psychology is something you can focus on inside a psychology bachelor.

Yes. You'll obviously be better suited for cognitive neuro programs/mentors than neurobiology ones though. If you can, definitely take intro bio/molec sequence. Also, if you're doing cog neuro, I'd highly recommend taking the calc sequence and linear algebra at least, so that you can actually understand the stats/ML stuff being used when the time comes to do research.

Yes because neuroscience is a meme.

Isn't this called the introspection problem? No amount of psychoanalysis will ever reveal the existence or function of neurons.

Litterally any slightly introverted person has the traits in the picture. Chill the fuck out niggers, everybody has those thoughts.

Maybe but you'd be a stupid neuroscientist. Do undergrad in physics, chemistry, or engineering. Then do neuroscience PhD. Preferably, you'd do a PhD in engineering with a concentration in bioengineering or neuroengineering. Otherwise you're gonna be a loser neuroscientist who can't get funding and no one takes seriously. Make sure you do the PhD at a top bio/neuroengineering school like Georgia Tech, Stanford, MIT, or Caltech.
