Congratulations to Psychology researchers Marcella Montagnese and Richard Bethlehem, who have secured funding from the Accelerate Programme for Scientific Discovery for their CogMap project. 15 differerent research projects in the programme will use artificial intelligence to tackle some of the most pressing challenges in science and society.

CogMap: An Educational AI Tool for Interpreting Brain-Based Cognitive Profiles

Richard Bethlehem, Associate Professor of Neuroinformatics, Department of Psychology

Marcella Montagnese, Junior Research Fellow in Biological and Medical Sciences, Christ’s College Cambridge & Research Associate, Department of Psychology

Brain imaging research generates valuable insights but requires specialist expertise to interpret. This project will develop CogMap, an educational tool that uses machine learning to compare individual brain scans against population norms, identify patterns linked to memory and thinking abilities, and employs a language model to simply explain findings and suggest personalised cognitive tests, making cutting-edge neuroscience accessible to students, researchers, and medical trainees.
