NSCI 357 - Sensory Neuroscience

FC NSMA

4 credits
We do not see with our eyes or hear with our ears. Our perceptions result from neural computations carried out by our brains. This course will examine how the neural processing of sensory information results in perception. The focus of the course will be mostly at the neural networks/circuitry level. The course will include visits to Allen Memorial Art Museum and Conservatory of Music performances to explore how the brain processes art and music. Field trip(s) required.

Prerequisites: NSCI 201.
