Students will have the opportunity to gain first-hand experience in neuroscience tools, treatment approaches and advanced research methods including neuroimaging and statistical analysis. This programme has a unique focus on patient experiences and ensures a well-rounded understanding of neurological conditions and the basic science techniques used to study them, preparing graduates for future careers or further study in neuroscience or related disciplines.

Teaching will involve in-person lectures, workshops, seminars and practical sessions. The programme culminates in the research project, where students will be able to deepen their understanding and passion for the topic via hands-on neuroscience research.
