In their own words

About the company & team

The Max Planck UCL Centre for Computational Psychiatry and Ageing Research (MPC) is a research centre dedicated to studying the causes of psychiatric disorders as well as the causes of individual differences in cognitive development. The overarching goal of the MPC is to understand the cognitive and neural underpinnings of neuropsychiatric disorders. Computational models of differences and changes in brain-behaviour relations are the Centre's major theoretical tool. The Centre's findings will provide information on how cognitive functioning can be maintained into old age and on how psychiatric disorders can be better recognised and treated more efficiently.
