Narrowing down the field - it's a start

I know what I want to study and research, but it's taken a while to find out exactly what it's called.  There are a lot of disciplines and pseudo-disciplines that feature the word "neuro" in their name.  Anyway, the field I'm focusing glories in the handle "cognitive neuroscience".  It probably sounds like gobbledegook for most people but for me it's full of promise.

"Cognitive Neuroscience--With its concern about perception, action, memory, language and selective attention---will increasingly come to represent the central focus of all Neurosciences in the 21st century."

Now that's what I call right up my street. Let me at it!.
