Overview

CNCR is a new interdisciplinary research centre focusing on research in computational neuroscience and cognitive robotics. We use techniques such as brain imaging and robot modelling to try to understand more about how the brain works. One of the aims of CNCR is to exploit this new understanding. This will be by using it to develop new rehabilitation techniques for patients with brain injury or dysfunction; to develop new kinds of robot controllers; and to use these both for rehabilitation of patients, and as assistive technologies where rehabilitation is insufficient.

News

We are now recruiting for two Professorial Chairs to lead the centre. The advert and further particulars for the Chair in Robotics , and the Chair in Computational Neuroscience , are available.
