Cognitive neuroscience is the study of how the brain produces behavior. This class will examine a range of human cognitive abilities including memory, language, sensory perception and voluntary action, in both the normal and damaged brain. Our focus will be on human behavior and physiology, but we will occasionally reveiw related work with experimental animals.
