Clinical Neuroscience MPhil

We are a multidisciplinary team of scientists conducting experimental and clinical research of international impact and with a diverse range of specialties, including in areas of molecular, cellular and systems levels, cognitive and behavioural, clinical and computational neuroscience.<br/><br/>We work closely with academics and healthcare professionals across local and international networks, along with patients and public involvement groups, and industrial and policy partners, to apply neuroscience knowledge in clinical settings. From cell-based research to multimodal neuroimaging and precision medicine, our clinical neuroscience research encompasses diverse experimental and clinical tools and treatment modalities.<br/><br/>Course content<br/>Core research themes/topics:<br/><br/>Multiple Sclerosis<br/>molecular and cellular biology<br/>headache<br/>traumatic brain injury<br/>peripheral neuropathy<br/>stroke<br/>brain cancer<br/>hearing and listening<br/>tinnitus and hyperacusis<br/>auditory measurements and assessments<br/>hearing aid development and evaluation, including hearing-aids and cochlear implants<br/>chronic pain<br/>mood disorders<br/>neurodegenerative disorders<br/>psychosis<br/>Our methodological expertise includes:<br/><br/>phenotyping<br/>biomarker discovery<br/>cell-based and cell-free therapeutics<br/>experimental models of human disease<br/>cognitive screening and rehabilitation<br/>observational clinical studies<br/>clinical trials: drugs, devices, biologics, cells<br/>neuroimaging (ultra-high field and clinical MRI and MEG)<br/>multimodal neuroimaging acquisition and analysis<br/>brain connectomics<br/>neuromodulation<br/>precision medicine<br/>quantitative and qualitative research methods<br/>systematic reviews/meta-analyses
