Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging
The mission of the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging is to conduct cutting-edge fundamental research in cognitive neuroscience. Much of the rapid progress in this field is being driven by the development of complex neuroimaging techniques for the in-vivo scanning of activity in the human brain – an area in which the Centre plays a leading role. The research themes cover central cognitive functions such as perception, action, attention, cognitive control, memory, language, decision neuroscience as well as methods of data acquisition and analysis. The Centre also aims to establish how the different brain areas coordinate their activity with very high temporal precision to enable human and animal cognition.
