<p>Cognitive neuroscientists and neuropsychologists study the neural basis of behaviour. This module will provide in-depth coverage of the many different existing and emerging methods that are used within cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology. This will include ‘classic’ approaches but also cutting edge methodology and analysis methods that this burgeoning field employs. You will have the opportunity to develop a critical and in-depth understanding of the advantages and limitations of such techniques, as well as looking to the future and considering how continued improvements in technology might further increase the way in which we understand the neural basis of behaviour.</p>
