The goal of this course is to develop a working knowledge of techniques used in neuroscience research through laboratory exercises. We will focus on systems level investigations using electrophysiological techniques. Computer based data acquisition and analysis will be central to the course.
Students also learn to write clear and effective research reports.
The goal of this course is to provide an understanding of how we move. This understanding is derived from information about how muscles and the brain work, from information about how movements are planned and performed and from information about what computations are needed to carry out the movements.
