Neuroscience with Psychology (BSc)

The Neuroscience with Psychology curriculum is structured to provide a broad and integrated knowledge base concerning the operations of the human nervous system. This objective is achieved through a dual-perspective approach: a bottom-up analysis focusing on molecular and cellular mechanisms, and a top-down framework centered on behavioral neuropsychology. By synthesizing these perspectives, a holistic view of neural function and its impact on human behavior is developed.

Technical precision is maintained through the utilization of cutting-edge recording technologies, which allow for the observation of individual nerve cells and even isolated molecules. Such high-resolution investigation is essential for identifying the underlying causes of various pathologies. A significant portion of the research is dedicated to understanding the etiology and progression of neurodegenerative and vascular conditions, including stroke, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases.

Beyond major neurological disorders, the scope of study extends to a wide array of health problems that possess a neural foundation. This includes research into the optic nerves, cardiac regulation, olfactory systems, and neuromuscular challenges such as muscle weakness or dysphagia. By employing an academic and passive tone, the programme emphasizes the systematic and evidence-based nature of the field. The curriculum is designed to equip individuals with the analytical skills necessary to contribute to medical and psychological advancements, focusing entirely on the scientific properties of the nervous system and the rigorous methodologies required to decode its complexity.
