About the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour
The Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour (RCBB) was formed in September 2013. Within LJMU there is a long and creditable history of research into brains and behaviour, in health and illness, based within three Schools – Psychology, Biological and Environmental Sciences, and Sport and Exercise Sciences – as well as within the Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences. The RCBB works to promote greater cross school and faculty involvement in research in all areas of the brain and behavioural sciences, applied psychology, cognitive psychology, sports psychology, affective neuroscience, psychopharmacology, animal behaviour, health psychology and mindfulness.
The centre is facilitated by the executive board which comprises:
- Dr Emma Ashworth (Co-Lead RCBB)
- Dr Michael Richter (Co-Lead RCBB)
- Dr Sam Roberts (REF co-ordinator)
- Professor Helen Poole (Director School of Psychology)
- Magdelena Sliwinska (Early Career Research Representative)
