Cognitive and Computational Sciences
Cognitive and Computational Sciences seeks to understand the processes that underlie human perception, learning, memory, emotion, conceptual representation, and language. Time-tested methods from cognitive psychology are combined with techniques from data science and are giving rise to a new kind of cognitive scientist who is capable of linking the mental processes governing everyday activities to neural processes in the brain.
