• By addressing key issues in perceptual and cognitive brain research, students will build a detailed understanding of how the ‘working’ brain perceives, feels, moves and attends to relevant information. Specific course topics include auditory and visual perception, attention, language and sensorimotor functions.
  • In addition, they will learn to translate this knowledge in empirical research by hands-on training in all aspects of the experimental cycle, including experimental design, recording brain activation data, data analysis and interpretation. Methods that they will learn to apply include fMRI and EEG, as well as data analysis in the software packages Brainvoyager and EEGLAB.
