McMaster Synapse is not merely an academic publication. It is a gateway, a catalyst, and an incubator.
Our mission is to bridge the distance between aspiring learners captivated by the complexities of the mind and the ever-evolving world of cognitive neuroscience. We curate bi-annual, themed issues where students can not only read but critically engage with groundbreaking theories and concepts. Each issue acts as a focused lens on a specific facet of cognitive neuroscience, with the aim of not just disseminating knowledge but also of igniting intellectual curiosity. In this pursuit, we meticulously curate six articles per issue, each resonating with the designated theme, ensuring a cohesive deep dive into the topic.
This is not by accident, it is by design. We pride ourselves on the specificity of our scope and the clarity of our content. Authored exclusively by our in-house writing team, every article is a carefully crafted piece designed to be both scientifically rigorous and broadly accessible. In a world of free information, we believe it is essential to provide a specific, quality over quantity focus that allows for meaningful ideas to be spread.
