Research

The Faculty of Brain Sciences has a vision to solve the greatest health and wellbeing problems in the brain sciences, in order to transform society and reduce the global burden of disease.  The Faculty brings together six Institutes and Divisions, each of which excels in its own area of expertise: the Institutes of Neurology, Ophthalmology and Cognitive Neuroscience and the Ear Institute, the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences and the Division of Psychiatry.  

Our strategy actively encourages interdisciplinarity, innovative cross-Faculty working across UCL and the development of key strategic partnerships external to UCL.  In the field of neuroscience UCL is ranked second in the world, with clear ambition to be first.
