Neuroscientist Neil Burgess on the origin of neuroscience, drugs in clinical psychology, and the revolution in molecular biology.

This is powerful! I am having a Btech in Automation and Robotics Engineering, and I want to have a dual PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience and Theoretical Physics. This video is quite inspiring!
I am currently an undergraduate in Psychology and Neuroscience by far fascinates me the most, enough that I would like to get a Ph.D in Cognitive Neuroscience one day. But I am really curious as to what methodology is used there. Do researchers use brain Imaging, psychopharmacology, etc.? What exactly is the distinction between a Cognitive Neuroscientist and a Neuropsychologist?
Dadork neuropsychology is more clinical psychology, where as cognitive neuroscience is the study of cognition and neuroscience where they both meet and they do research on how those two dynamics interplay, in other words it’s a mix of psychology and neuroscience. I am an undergrad at University of California Irvine in cognitive sciences department. And yes they do use FMRI. computer science, math and many others things. They are also leading in artificial intelligence.
@Rafaël Djs Hi! I'm Spanish and I have a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience. I studied Biology first and then a Masters in Neuroimaging. You don't need to study medicine in order to do a PhD in Neuroscience. At least in Spain there is no undergraduate degree in Neuroscience, so normally people study either Biology or Psychology first, or Medicine too. But normally people who study Medicine want to be doctors and see patients rather than doing only research, although you can sometimes do both. Hope this helps.
@Amb Amb You know neuroscience is an extremely broad and diverse discipline that does not solely rely on animal models and if researchers do use animals, they have to get every study approved by an independent ethics comitee to make sure no unnecissary harm to the animal is inflicted?
People usually inform themselves before judging someone else for their interests - but hey some (ignorant) people are into making unnecissary and ill-informed comments on the internet
Amb Amb, I’m not sure if you are responding to me or to the person asking the initial question or both, or none, but I have never used animals during my PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience and although I do think research in animal models is necessary I wouldn’t want to do it myself. I used neuroimaging techniques to “take pictures” of people’s brains, something that is not painful or invasive. Other neuroscientists study cells in vitro without using animals. So it really depends on the subfield.
I would like to ask what is the difference between studying BSc in psychology then MSc in Neuroscience and studying BSc and MSc in Neuroscience
this is informative and insightful, thanks :D
It is very interesting field. I always wanted to know why same drug that works on patient not work for another patient who may have same condition.
@la ba Stupid question
Very interesting talk.
Good explanation!
thanks
Hey ! I am from marketing field can I learn neuroscience how to get in this field
My background was in history and philosophy and im now studying cog neuro with neil burgess, go for it!
Yes neuroscience is an all encompassing field, you can specialise in Neuro marketing thus using your background to contribute to the present knowledge.
quite interesting
