Course Details
Here are the essential units for a Postgraduate Certificate in Systems Neuroscience:
★ Fundamentals of Systems Neuroscience: An in-depth exploration of the core principles and concepts of systems neuroscience, including the organization and function of neural systems, neural coding, and neural plasticity.
★ Neural Circuits and Systems: This unit will cover the organization and properties of neural circuits and systems, including the analysis of their functional properties and the use of computational models to understand their behavior.
★ Neural Information Processing: An examination of the algorithms and models used in neural information processing, including the use of machine learning and artificial neural networks to understand the brain's computational capabilities.
★ Neuroimaging and Neural Data Analysis: An introduction to neuroimaging techniques, including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG), and the analysis of neural data using statistical and computational methods.
★ Cognitive Neuroscience: An exploration of the neural basis of cognition, including attention, perception, memory, language, and decision-making.
★ Neurodevelopment and Neurodegeneration: A study of the neural mechanisms underlying brain development and aging, as well as the causes and consequences of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
★ Neuroethology and Comparative Neuroscience: An examination of the neural mechanisms underlying behavior in non-human animals, including the use of comparative approaches to understand the evolution of neural systems.
★ Neurotechnology and Neuroengineering: An exploration of the latest advances in neurotechnology and neuroengineering, including the use of brain-computer interfaces, neural prost
