The research seminar series of the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour (RCBB) showcases current work of researchers from all areas of brain and behavioural sciences.
The Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour is involved in research in all areas of brain and behavioural sciences, applied psychology, cognitive psychology, sports psychology, affective neuroscience, psychopharmacy, animal behaviour, health psychology and mindfulness. Find out more about our expertise and what we have achieved.
This project focuses on the role olfactory and oral perception plays in shaping our consummatory experiences, preferences, and food seeking behaviours. Research into this area is important to health research, shaping understanding of individual differences in food selection, consumption, and other dietary behaviours.
Within the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour we are involved in research which looks at perception, attention, emotion, learning and memory, sensory and motor processes, and includes animal models of neurobehavioral research. We investigate cognitive and brain mechanisms in psychologically and neurologically intact animals and humans, and the disruption of these processes caused by drugs, brain damage, ageing or atypical development.
Find out more about the specific areas of expertise within the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour, including: applied psychology, cognitive psychology, sports psychology, affective neuroscience, psychopharmacology, animal behaviour, health psychology and mindfulness.
Meet the research staff within the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour and read their profiles to find out their specific areas of interest and expertise.
The Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour has dedicated facilities including: EEG, psychophysiology, appetite research and neuroscience microneurography laboratories plus experimental testing booths and a sleep-over rest room. We also share a number of facilities with other science departments within the University.
In the Brain and Behaviour Research Group within RISES, we study human motor behaviour from the neural level through to perception and cognition. Our two main areas of research are sensorimotor neuroscience and expert performance and learning.
This study aims to understand the causal relationship between discrimination and psychosis in ethnic minority populations in the UK.
LJMU will host an Experimental Psychology Society workshop entitled: Modularity in Time Perception and Timed Behaviour on 19 January 2017.
