Department of Scientific Research
The Department of Scientific Research aims at advocating neuroscience research and cultivating research knowledge and skills among students. To arouse students’ interest in neuroscience research, our department strives to expose them to both popular research areas and overlooked aspects in this field, and equip students with the ability to propose, plan, and execute research projects. We believe that these experiences can effectively boost students’ enthusiasm for neuroscience and nurture the next generation of neuroscientists.
Aims
Learn
To promote neuroscience research and develop students’ thorough understanding and skills of scientific research.
Explore
To introduce students to both well-known and underutilised areas of neuroscience study while also preparing them to design, organise, and carry out their own research projects.
Inspire
To spark students’ interest in neuroscience and nurture the future generation of dedicated and skilled neuroscientists.
Past Activites
Research Workshops
Our Research Workshops on various aspects of neuroscience equipped students with relevant knowledge and skills involved in neuroscience-related or general research, allowing them to build a solid foundation and be fully ready for future research projects.
In the past, the Workshops have also helped students learn how design systematic literature searches, use appropriate software to properly conduct research analyses, as well as key laboratory techniques.
Research Platform
Collaborating with different departments at the University of Hong Kong, the Research Platform introduced participants to different types of research, and the practical and theoretical primers to develop medical research.
Participants also had the opportunities to conduct medical research under guidance of professors and experience researchers from various disciplines, collaborate with students from different years and backgrounds, as well as present and/or publish their project findings.
NeuroEd Instagram Series
Through short and engaging videos, the Series broke down key neuroscience concepts that impact everyday well-being for the general public, while using relatable, real-life examples to make neuroscience fascinating and accessible to the general public.
