Student-led neuroscience

Curious aboutthe human brain.

Exploring cognition, memory and EEG through research and shared learning.

What we’re exploring

  • Cognition & memory

    Exploring attention, cognitive load and memory encoding.

  • EEG & signal processing

    Learning to process and interpret brain signals.

  • Learning together

    Reading, discussing and taking part in EEG competitions.

Research in progress

Cognitive load & memory encoding

About the group

Students learning about the brain, together.

Broccoli Brain Lab is a group of undergraduate students curious about the human brain. We’re learning about cognition, memory and EEG together.

We read cognitive neuroscience and mindfulness material, take part in EEG signal-processing competitions, and are designing research with a professor. Our direction is still open — we’re exploring, and shaping it as we learn.

Why broccoli? We chose the name because a head of broccoli, with its branching florets, resembles a brain.

The team

We’re a small group of undergraduates. Individual member introductions will be added here soon.

Notes

What we’re reading and discussing.

  1. EEG interpretation

    What brain signals can and can’t tell us, and how to read them carefully.

  2. Memory encoding

    How experiences become memories, and what shapes that process.

  3. Attention

    How we choose what to focus on, and how mental load affects it.

  4. Mindfulness

    Reading on mindfulness and how it relates to attention and cognition.

Published notes will be added here later.
