An important component of NYU ANST is Neuropsychology Journal Club
The journal club will meet twice a semester to review a recently published paper in neuropsychology (or a related field). During the meeting, one member will review the basic findings and provide an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of the paper. Others are encouraged to comment, hopefully generating a rich discussion about the role of the research findings in our overall understanding of brain-behavior relationships.
NYU Bobst Library is a great way to access recently published neuropsychological articles. Below are some suggestions for research journals - this is not a comprehensive list, and members should feel free to choose from other journals not included below.
Neuropsychology
Journal of Neuropsychology
Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology
Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience
Mind and Language
American Psychologist (APA Journal)
Trends in Cognitive Sciences
Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society
