Neuroscience is a vibrant and emerging discipline which seeks to understand the development, structure and function of the nervous system, as well as giving insights into possible therapies for neural diseases and disorders; the neuroscience field draws its impetus from a wide variety of disciplines including anatomy, neurology, physiology and psychology as well as recent advances in molecular biology, neuroimaging, systems neuroscience and bioinformatics; the neuroscience course is that it is research-led, and is constantly updated in the light of recent discoveries, informed by the expertise in the major neuroscience research centres which are at the international forefront of the field; these include the MRC centre for developmental neurobiology, the wolfson centre for age-related diseases and the centre for neurodegeneration and brain injury at institute of psychiatry; the aim of the undergraduate programme is to produce students with an integrated knowledge base in neuroscience, and a wide set of skills; students develop analytical and critical thinking and the ability to understand and communicate complex ideas via a number of different media.
