Research domains
UCL research domains are large, cross-disciplinary research communities that aim to bring together a critical mass of expertise to solve the world's most urgent problems. Research domains allow strategic coordination of research across UCL and our partner organisations.
Research domains at the Faculty of Brain Sciences
The UCL Neuroscience Domain unites our neuroscientists and partners in their groundbreaking research, in training scientists and clinicians, and in transforming our ability to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders.
The Neuroscience Domain addresses three of our research themes:
