Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience
The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience examines how the human brain makes awareness, perception, movement, learning, social interaction and other cognitive functions possible. It also studies how brain disorders can disrupt these functions.
The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience encompasses the Netherlands Brain Bank, the Netherlands Sleep Registry and the Spinoza Centre for Neuroimaging, which provide national and international facilities for research into human brain tissue, ultra-sensitive MRI scanners for basic research into brain functions and brain disorders, and research into cognitive functions and sleep patterns.
