Research groups:
- Research activity in the school is organised into research themes. Within each theme, there is a set of focused research groups.
- An important feature of this research structure is the extent of collaboration across research groups and across the themes. All groups address fundamental questions and look at the impact of their work more broadly in industry, healthcare, education and society. Across these thematic research groups, there are particular strengths in computational neuroscience and neuropsychology.
