Center for Cognitive Science

Who we are

Cognitive science (CogSci) group is one of the five groups within the newly established Institute for Convergent Science and Technology (ICST) in Sharif University of Technology (SUT). Formed in early 2022, CogSci aims to bring together principal investigators (PI) and researchers in SUT along common interests in neuroscience and neuro-engineering and to implement and support large-scale and innovative projects covering a wide spectrum from computational neuroscience to the state of the art in neuro-equipment and software as well as introducing protocols and implementing standards for neuroscience related research in SUT.

Goals we are aiming at:

        Main goals include:
  1. Identification of strategic areas of development in cognitive sciences in which SUT has a competitive advantage

  2. Performing multidisciplinary large-scale projects in neuroscience and neuro-engineering

  3. Providing education and training in neuroscience and neuro-engineering


Strengths

  • Located within SUT with a track-record of excellence in science and engineering

  • Active  participating laboratories including Neuroengineering, Cognitive Science Laboratory and "Movafaghian" Center

  • Close collaboration with other groups within ICST including Nanotechnology, Data science and Biological Science
