中文简介:
我们现在正处于神经科学领域前所未有的时刻:我们可以看到人脑在看、思考、决定、阅读和记忆时的行动。功能性磁共振成像(fMRI)是唯一能够以非侵入性方式和良好的空间分辨率监测正常人脑局部神经活动的方法。关于人类思维和大脑的大量深远和基本问题现在可以通过这项技术的直接应用来回答。在高级视觉领域尤其如此,研究我们如何解释和使用视觉信息,包括物体识别、心理意象、视觉注意力、知觉意识、视觉引导动作和视觉记忆。 本课程的目标是帮助学生成为当前神经影像学文献的精明和批判性读者,了解该技术的优势和劣势,并设计他们自己的前沿、理论动机的研究。学生将阅读、向全班展示和评论最近发表的神经影像学文章,并为他们自己的实验撰写详细的建议。讲座将涵盖高级视觉中一些主要领域的理论背景,以及 fMRI 教给我们的内容以及将来可以教给我们的关于这些主题的内容的概述。讲座和讨论还将涵盖fMRI方法和实验设计。需要先前的统计学课程和至少一门感知或认知课程。
课程简介: We are now at an unprecedented point in the field of neuroscience: We can watch the human brain in action as it sees, thinks, decides, reads, and remembers. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is the only method that enables us to monitor local neural activity in the normal human brain in a noninvasive fashion and with good spatial resolution. A large number of far-reaching and fundamental questions about the human mind and brain can now be answered using straightforward applications of this technology. This is particularly true in the area of high-level vision, the study of how we interpret and use visual information including object recognition, mental imagery, visual attention, perceptual awareness, visually guided action, and visual memory. The goals of this course are to help students become savvy and critical readers of the current neuroimaging literature, to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the technique, and to design their own cutting-edge, theoretically motivated studies. Students will read, present to the class, and critique recently published neuroimaging articles, as well as write detailed proposals for experiments of their own. Lectures will cover the theoretical background on some of the major areas in high-level vision, as well as an overview of what fMRI has taught us and can in future teach us about each of these topics. Lectures and discussions will also cover fMRI methods and experimental design. A prior course in statistics and at least one course in perception or cognition are required.
