About Us
The Department of Neuroscience comprises multidisciplinary groups from the units of Neurology, Neuropathology and Psychiatry working in both basic and clinical neuroscience. Clinical and non-clinical researchers combine to investigate the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease and major psychoses, with the goal of translating novel insights into new therapeutic approaches. |
Research
The major areas of research interest are in neurodegenerative diseases (diseases of the motor system, basal ganglia and dementia); psychiatric disorders (psychoses, including schizophrenia) and clinical neurology (non epileptic attack disorder, cerebrovascular disease, ataxia and Multiple Sclerosis).
