Hello, everyone. I'd like to know how may I become a neuroscientist as fast as possible? As far as I'm concerned I need to graduate in any kind of course first so then I can study neuroscience, (at least that's how it works here in Brazil). I also would like to know, what's the best place to be a researcher, and how can I start doing it as fast as possible? How is the market nowadays? What is the best country for it? Also but not so important, is it profitable? Thanks in advance.

The best place to perform neuroscientific research is - and will ever remain - academia. Universities and such. I'm planning on becoming a neuroscientist (that is, a researcher in neuroscience) in combination with my clinical profession as a neurologist (that is, if the odds are in my favour). So, others here may give you other options; I'm presenting you the option I'm going for: you may study medicine (6 years in Europe) and then you could either directly get into neuroscientific research (preferrably though after obtaining a specific MSc in Neuroscience) or combine neuroscientific research with a (at least in Europe) 5-year clinical specialisation in neurology ... If you really plan on becoming a neuroscientist, obtaining a PhD could get you where you want to get.

Nonetheless, this is only one option (or two, actually). I'm sure there're lots of options. Best of luck!

I've heard this before. Nope, I'm not into medicine at all. I'm thinking about doing chemistry in college and then neurosciences. Maybe you can point me the best place for becoming a good neuroscientist in Europe, and researching. Where would it be more profitable, this is not so important but I'd like to know. I can travel to Europe since I have European citizenship.
