Integrated Neurobiology and Cognition

The objective of this course unit is to provide an integrated approach to the functioning of the nervous system, drawing on several disciplines within the neurosciences (neurodevelopment, functional neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, and cognitive neuroscience) and focusing on complex brain functions.

- Knowledge:

-Apply fundamental concepts of neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, and cognition to study and understand complex brain functions such as learning and memory, wakefulness and sleep, etc.

-Identify and apply descriptive, functional, and behavioral techniques for studying the nervous system in order to characterize and understand brain function—both in isolation and in interaction with its environment

-Interpret experimental data

-Link a neuroanatomical substrate to a brain function and behavior, and develop an integrated, multidisciplinary approach

-Expertise:

-Understandone's role and responsibilities within a student group in order to adapt and take initiative

-Work both as part of a team and independently and responsibly to support a project

-Evaluate yourself and challenge your assumptions in order to learn.

-Interpersonal skills:

- Use standard digital tools to process information and to collaborate both internally and externally

- Analyze and synthesize bibliographic and experimental data for practical application.
