Cognitive Neuroscience examines how the structure and activity of the brain support thinking, learning, memory, attention, language, and other higher mental abilities. It combines insights from psychology, neuroscience, and computational science to study the biological foundations of cognition. Using tools such as neuroimaging, brain stimulation, behavioral experiments, and computer modeling, this field explores how brain networks process information and adapt over time. It also investigates how cognitive functions change with development, aging, and in conditions that affect brain health, aiming to link brain mechanisms to real-world behavior.
