The aim of our Clinical Neuroscience MSc course is to give you a unique understanding of the principles underlying the clinical presentation and investigation of diseases affecting the brain. We place particular emphasis on the translation from basic science to clinical practice. Our course is suitable for students interested in neuroscience and its applications to neurological or psychiatric diseases.
The mixed background of my cohort was one of the things I appreciated most about the course. Interacting daily with people that had different academic profiles allowed me to learn from them how to overcome some of my shortcomings as well as gain more awareness of my strengths.
Our Clinical Neuroscience course enables scientists, trainees in neurology, psychiatry and related health-care disciplines to study the anatomical, physiological and pathological basis of symptoms and signs of brain disorders. It will provide you with in-depth knowledge and skills related to specialist research and clinical practice, systematically integrating advances in genetics, molecular neuroscience, electrophysiology and neuroimaging. You will have the opportunity to work independently within a multidisciplinary environment and at an advanced level to develop and sustain evidence-based practice, appraise and conduct clinical or preclinical research.
We will use a delivery method that will ensure students have a rich, exciting experience from the start. Face to face teaching will be complemented and supported with innovative technology so that students also experience elements of digital learning and assessment.
