Neuroscience, also known as Neural Science, is the study of how the nervous system develops, its structure, and what it does. Neuroscientists focus on the brain and its impact on behavior and cognitive functions. ... Many researchers say that neuroscience means the same as neurobiology.

Social neuroscience is a research discipline that examines how the brain mediates social processes and behaviour. A wide range of research topics are examined within this discipline, including social interactions, agency, empathy, morality, and social prejudice and affiliations.
