Who will educate me on uploading?

[Goldenace]

I'm very interested in "uploading" and other scientific advances in the brain. I'd imagine that neuroscience would be the degree I'm looking for but I'm not sure since I'm not really interested in a medical profession. I'm interested in a career doing research in areas such as uploading.

So having said that what degree should I pursue? which career?


p.s. I apologize if this is the wrong section I'm new :)

It's not really clear to me which aspect of the mind you're looking to study (i.e, on a purely anatomical level or something higher). Is cognitive science perhaps closer to what you want than neuroscience? Maybe biomedical engineering?
