Sure, you can pursue a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in neuroscience  in which you would study about nervous system and biological mechanisms of brain.As your interest is inclined towards medicine and research this would be a great choice.In foreign universities like Columbia and Harvard, there is better exposure and reasearch opportunities.The application process for the admission in first year can be done from the official  website of the university  ie. through common application (1 Aug) or coalition application (15 Aug).

Choosing a BA in Neuroscience at Columbia over and above a BS will ultimately impact your future in research or in medicine, but it never prevents success. A BA generally places more emphasis on critical thinking and communication that are important in any health care and policy setting; however, a BS most often gives a better preparatory base in technical and quantitative skills for laboratory research and advanced scientific study. If your goal is to pursue a career in medicine or research, consider complementing your BA with relevant experiences, such as internships or research projects, to enhance your qualifications.
