Ever get a feeling of Déjà vu? What happens when we confront something new? how do we tell if we’ve seen something before? In this introduction to the field of Behavioral Neuroscience course, Professor Markus will show you that what we think we see, hear and remember can have little to do with the physical reality. Professor Markus will guide you through fascinating human and animal research including responses of individual brain cells to changes in the world around us.

Students will be exposed to lively discussion, video clips, in-class activities, and a chance to analyze data, in order to come away with a better understanding of how our brains process information about the world.

Excellent for students interested in Psychology, Cognitive Sciences, and Medicine.
