PhD in Biological Science MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit

The aim is that students develop the skills required to submit an excellent PhD thesis in either three or four years, depending upon the duration of their funding. Furthermore, our goal is to equip students for highly successful careers in their chosen profession, whether this is academia, clinical practice or industry. The students design and conduct experiments, analyse results and learn to communicate those findings both in writing and orally. There is no standard model for an excellent PhD, but they always result from the combined expertise of our supervisors and the dedicated enthusiasm of our doctoral students.
