The human brain is not only involved in human’s higher cortical function such as memory, attention, language, judgment, but also related in human emotion, motor, and sensory function. How do the human beings think, memorize, and infer? How do humans exchange information? How do humans have feeling? Those questions are in mystery and it is the topic of the 21st century. Cognitive science is one of the academic fields that studies such human’s cognitive process. That is, it is the study to investigate relations among psyche, soma, and mind-behavior-brain and to demonstrate. Therefore, cognitive science is the study that needs to get comprehensive approach such as neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry and adjacent field. Clinical Cognitive Neuroscience Center (CCNC) is the team that studies about human’s cognition function in comprehensive way. We are studying a healthy person as well as schizophrenia, mood disorder, OCD, and a patient that has damage in brain based on comprehensive approach. The methods that we use are as follows.

First, using MRI, PET, and up-to-date method, those are neuroimaging methods, we study about brain structural and functional defect.

Second, using ERP/EEG that have strong power to investigate human cognitive function, especially 128 channel high-density recording, we study about electrophysiological change of the brain and source localization method for EEG/ERP.

Third, we use various kinds of neuropsychological test (NCFT) in order to evaluate the change of cognitive function objectively.

Fourth, measured information was treated through various ways like signal processing. We are developing diverse cognitive function model through developing new imaging way and simulation. In addition, we use various clinical scale, such as PANSS, YMS, Y-BOCS, TCI, and so on, in order to evaluate the symptom change of a healthy person and a patient.

All members in CCNC do their best in order to reveal the mystery of cognitive function that is human’s higher cortical function. It’s certain that our team will make contributions to cognitive science development.
