The course will provide students a general background in neural systems and behaviour, including an introduction to neuroanatomy, neuroimaging and human neurophysiology (EEG, MEG), higher cognitive functions, network neuroscience, and computational modeling.
The course consists of lectures (each ~120 min) followed by a journal-club discussion, led by graduate students enrolled in the course, each week.
