This course is an introduction to the neural mechanisms underlying different aspects of cognition, including perception, attention, memory, and executive function. This course will focus on primary cognitive neuroscience research to unpack the types of questions that are investigated and the various methods that are used to understand the link between cognition and brain function. Coverage of these topics will provide students with a deeper understanding of cognitive processes and theories, and the relation between the mind and brain.
