Bradford Cognition and Brain Group
The Bradford Cognition and Brain Group (BCB Group) is a collaboration between the Division of Psychology and the School of Optometry and Vision Science. The aim of the group is to promote alliance and the sharing of research across the University of Bradford (and beyond) among anyone interested in Cognitive Psychology, or any type of brain functioning or behaviour. Regular seminars allow individuals to present their research to the rest of the group and encourage discussion of potential research links, including funding opportunities.
