Neuropsychology is a unique branch of psychology that is the study of understanding disorders and distress in human psychology<\/a> and brain functioning.<\/p>\n

This exciting and rapidly evolving discipline examines the nature of thought and its biological basis. Neuropsychology attempts to solve the mysteries of the mind by bringing together evidence from molecular and cellular neuroscience, a wide range of brain imaging techniques, computational modelling and cognitive neuropsychology.<\/p>\n

On a neuropsychology course you will consider all aspects of cognitive functioning, from\u00a0learning, memory and language through to concepts such as intelligence, creativity and consciousness.<\/p>\n
