Huge congratulations to Nina and Charlotte on a successful MSci Poster Day! π
After a year of hard work in the lab, it was wonderful to see them present their findings to the department yesterday.
Check out our new paper! We evaluate what we know (and don't know) about the link between memory consolidation during sleep and next-day learning π
Happy #WorldRadiographyDay!
At OxCIN, our radiographers make cutting-edge brain imaging possible β combining clinical skill, research expertise and participant care. Over the past year, our Radiography Team have completed 1686 scans.
