PSYC 470 Cognitive Neuroscience Seminar

In this course we will discuss the methods of cognitive neuroscience and neuroimaging, including PET, fMRI, EEG, ERPs, MEG, optical imaging, and lesion methods (including TMS), with an emphasis on human research and applications. We will critically evaluate research articles in which these methods are used to examine such topics as attention, memory, language, and motor control. Each student will propose an original research project.
