Psykologi: Avancerad kognitiv neurovetenskap I

The course covers classic areas of study within cognitive neuroscience and provides advanced theoretical knowledge of the functional neuroanatomy of the brain, research methods in cognitive neuroscience, and core processes. Understanding normal functioning is the course's primary focus, but clinical examples are also used as an important contrast to normal functioning. The interdisciplinary nature of the subject is emphasised throughout the course. Topical areas covered include sensation and perception, learning and memory, cognitive control, and language.  

Teaching consists of lectures, seminars, and lab assignments. In addition to active participation in seminars and lab assignments, the course includes an individual written examination.

At the end of the course, students are expected to have acquired in-depth knowledge of theories and topical areas in the field of cognitive neuroscience, achieved an in-depth understanding of research methods and core processes in cognitive neuroscience, and independently reflected on its applications.
