Research

Educational neuroscience aims to coordinate evidence from behavioural and neuroimaging studies to obtain a more complete understanding of learning that can be used to specify the pedagogical approaches that will support it most effectively. CEN research in literacy, number development, science learning and socio-emotional development illustrates the potential of the field to explain both typical and atypical learning in a coherent fashion and to identify novel pedagogical strategies that fully address individual variation in capability.

Our management team provides strategic direction and coordinates individual research projects into a unified programme.
