Why Me?
I combine a strong foundation in biology with cutting-edge neuroscience research experience and international teaching exposure across Switzerland and India.
I am deeply committed to fostering critical thinking, scientific curiosity, and practical expertise at every level of education.
About Shaili Gour
I am passionate about neuroscience and hold a First-Class Ph.D. in Neuroscience from the University of Zurich, Switzerland. I also hold a First-Class Joint Master’s Degree from the University of Strasbourg, University of Freiburg, and University of Basel.
With over 12 years of neuroscience research experience across seven prestigious universities — including the University of Zurich, University of Basel, University of Strasbourg, Uppsala University, Freiburg University, SRM University, and Jiwaji University — I have built a robust skill set in molecular neuroscience, cognitive neuroscience, and clinical research.
Beyond teaching, I actively mentor students by providing career guidance: from selecting the right university, preparing outstanding applications, excelling in interviews, to thriving in academic environments.
Let's unlock scientific curiosity together — from classroom to research excellence.

Teaching Style and Approach
My teaching style is interactive, conceptual, and focused on both examination success and research readiness.
I believe that true education is not just about memorizing facts for an exam but about learning concepts for a lifetime.
I place a strong emphasis on:
Critical thinking: Helping students question, analyze, and connect ideas rather than passively accept information.
Deep conceptual understanding: Building strong foundational knowledge that can be applied across subjects and real-world problems.
Active engagement: Teaching through interactive discussions, problem-solving exercises, and hands-on activities that make science lively and memorable.
Each lesson is:
Carefully structured to adapt to the needs of my students — whether preparing for an important exam, mastering practical skills, or engaging in advanced research.
Designed to make even complex biological or neuroscience concepts accessible and exciting, encouraging curiosity and independent exploration.
Enriched with interesting activities, case studies, real-world examples, and opportunities for students to apply their learning creatively.
Ultimately, my goal is to inspire students to:
Think critically and independently.
Retain and apply their knowledge far beyond the classroom or laboratory.
Feel confident and motivated in pursuing their academic and professional goals in science.
