Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuropsychology (MSc.
Studying our MSc in Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience will expose you to advanced topics in the study of cognition and behaviour including attention, perception, memory, decision-making, and emotion. Furthermore, the course will explore how these cognitive processes link to brain mechanisms by exploring cognitive neuroscience methods.
Cognitive neuroscience is the study of human cognition, or thought, as it relates to neuroscience, or the biological functions of the brain and nervous system. Basically, the goal of this type of neuroscience is to help psychologists understand how the physical and biological parts of the brain influence or create the less tangible parts, like thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and memories.
The MSc in Brain Imaging and Cognitive Neuroscience is an exciting course that offers students the flexibility to develop specific interests, whilst at the same time an excellent opportunity to develop the technical and transferable skills needed to succeed in a wide range of research-related jobs. Key features of the course are.
The Department of Neuroscience includes several research groups working on different aspects of nervous system function, both under normal conditions and in various disease states.
A long standing goal of cognitive neuroscience is to find models which reproduce behavioral and neural responses. However, with the extensive variety of real-world events, a model is still to be found which simulates convincingly how people display such remarkable ability to acquire complex representational forms such as item taxonomies, latent patterns and causal structures simply through.
Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience (ICN) PhD students are based in a truly interdisciplinary institute. The ICN is situated within the School of Life and Medical Sciences with staff members belonging to different research divisions and departments. This diversity provides a unique learning and research environment which is also much valued by.
