I would like to study physics because I like the methodology it has as well as how it can open your mind in understanding the universe around us. Also I love the math aspect of it. But as the title says I am also really interested in neuroscience and genetics. What shall I do?

I think you can study physics and then do graduate studies in biophysics. Have you thought about that?

Biophysics will definitely speak of genetics and neuroscience.
