Abstract
In 1996, as an innovation for the UK, the Wellcome Trust set up two 'Americ an style' four-year PhD programmes in neuroscience, with an initial year of broad training followed by a three-year PhD. Here, some of the first cohor t of students, who are soon to graduate and the coordinators of the program mes, give their views on this experiment in neuroscience research training.
