在这里学什么？

Discover the scientific principles underpinning neuroimaging techniques and the exciting advances being made to further understand cognition and clinical disorders.

On this course you will be introduced to a wide range of neuroimaging and stimulation methods, including: structural and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Magnetoencephalography (MEG), Electroencephalography (EEG), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (TES). The first semester aims to give you a solid grounding in how these techniques work and considerations when designing and analysing neuroimaging studies. In the second semester you will learn about the contribution that neuroimaging is making to our understanding of: memory, perception, emotion and a variety of clinical disorders.

A diverse range of teaching methods and hands-on activities are used on the course including: lectures, journal clubs, workshops, computing sessions and lab classes, which are led by internationally acclaimed experts in both the methods and applications of neuroimaging. Depending on your background and interests, you may then choose to specialise in either methodology or applications based research for your project in the final semester.

You will be based at the Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre (CUBRIC), our dedicated brain imaging facility, where you will have access to some of the most advanced neuroimaging equipment, including: MRI (4 scanners), MEG, EEG (including EEG sleep labs) and Brain Stimulation. This is one of only a handful of research dedicated centres in the world that contains this variety of equipment all in one building.

We welcome graduates from a wide range of scientific backgrounds, including: psychology, engineering, physics and the biological sciences who are interested in a career where brain imaging forms a major focus. The course also aims to put you in a competitive position for a PhD studentship or research position in neuroimaging.
