The Faculty of Brain Sciences is a global leader in research and education into the mind and brain, and home to some of the most influential and creative academics in the field. UCL is the top-ranked university in the UK for research power in Psychology, Psychiatry and Neuroscience according to the UK’s Research Excellence Framework 2021.
