Neuroimaging is a rapidly developing multidisciplinary field with new
possibilities of understanding the brain both in health and disease.
Functional neuroimaging tools, such as fMRI and EEG, aim to provide
valuable insights into brain structure-function and brain-behavior
relationships.

There are three parts in this course: *principles of functional
neuroimaging, experimental design and data analysis, applications to
cognitive neuroscience.* Physics principles, mathematical/statistical
modeling approaches and computer simulations will be used to enhance
students’ learning of the materials. This course is appropriate for
graduate/undergraduate students majoring in physics, neuroscience or any
other fields of our B &B programwith an interest in the use of
functional neuroimaging, brain data analysis and modeling of brain
processes.
