Beschreibung:Cognitive neuroscience asks the question: what neural computations in the brain give rise to rich human behavior? In this block course, through lectures, watching talks, and reading papers in the field, you will learn how researchers have sought to tackle this problem using various methods (e.g. neuroimaging). After a general overview of the field, we will explore a few methods and concepts in depth. By the end, you will have acquired an intuition for thinking about how neural computation can give rise to complex behaviors, which will set you up for future in-depth courses on the topics in cognitive neuroscience.
