Mind, Brain and Behaviour Research Centre (CIMCYC)

The Mind, Brain and Behavior Research Center (CIMCYC, https://cimcyc.ugr.es/en) of the University of Granada in Spain brings together world-class research in several key areas of Psychology and Neuroscience with the mission to produce excellent international science, train excellent professionals and go to great lengths to impact society and make the world a better place for its citizens.

CIMCYC researchers study the human mind and brain, its individual variability, development and disease, its interrelation with the surrounding social environment and multitude of applications of this knowledge. Our greatest fortitude lies in the unique and privileged combination of state-of-the-art infrastructures at the service of these core multidisciplinary psychological research topics, with outstanding researchers that teach at excellent international postgraduate training programs and also organize and participate in a myriad of community insertion activities that make our research matter to society.

The CIMCYC is housed in a 4-floor building that offers state-of-the-art shared research equipment including a 3T Magnetic Resonance Imaging Prisma scanner (fMRI, fully research-devoted at the basement of the building), a robotized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulator (TMS) with neuronavigation, transcranial electric stimulators (tES), EyeLink eyetrackers, High-density Electroencephalography (EEG), iMotions biometry, Tobii Pro Glasses, a cardiopulmonary analyzer, a Jatos server for online experiments, several high-performance computers for in-site and remote data analyses (see https://cimcyc.ugr.es/en/research/equipment) and a Sona platform for participant recruitment. In addition, each lab has further specialized equipment for the use of its researchers.

Recognizing the international leadership and capabilities of CIMCYC, the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities has awarded the center with a "María de Maeztu Unit of Excellence" distinction.
