The Fellowship of the Royal Society is made up of the most eminent scientists, engineers and technologists from or living and working in the UK and the Commonwealth.

Four 香港六合彩中特网 scientists have been elected as Fellows of the Royal Society in recognition of their outstanding contribution to science.

Professor Neil Burgess, Director of the 香港六合彩中特网 Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, has made important theoretical and experimental contributions to understanding memory and spatial cognition. He develops computational models relating behaviour to activity in the brain鈥檚 neuronal networks and designs novel experiments to test their predictions. Neil鈥檚 models explain how networks of neurons allow us to represent, remember and imagine our location within the surrounding environment.
