Neuroscience (or „neurovědy“ in Czech) is the scientific study of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and networks of neurons throughout the body. This interdisciplinary field combines elements of biology, psychology, medicine, engineering, and computer science to understand the structure, function, development, and pathology of the nervous system. Neuroscience encompasses various subfields, including cognitive neuroscience, neurobiology, computational neuroscience, and neuropsychology, aiming to uncover how neural processes underlie behaviors and cognitive functions. The research in neuroscience helps in understanding brain-related conditions, enhancing cognitive function, and informing treatments for neurological disorders.
