PSY 459 - Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory

  • 2 credits
View available sections

Our goal for this lab is to introduce you to cognitive neuroscience through the lens of cognitive psychology - we want to make you more comfortable with neuroimaging! You'll learn about the strengths and weaknesses of various methodologies in cognitive neuroscience and how they are each uniquely suited for different kinds of research. You'll also learn a bit about the underlying systems that keep your cognitive functions in working order as well as how disruptions to them can cause various psychiatric and neurological disorders. This is all explored through lots of hands on exercises. In general, you'll gain a broader understanding of how your brain works and the tools that let us investigate how well it's functioning.
