By using a systems-level approach, we cover\u00a0sensory-motor performance and the underlying neural mechanisms. Sensory systems (e.g., visual,\u00a0auditory, somatosensory), motor systems initiating\/controlling movement and sensory-motor\u00a0integration are examined. That is to say, we focus on how single neurons and populations of neurons\u00a0represent sensory information, how sensory signals are transformed and decoded to mediate\u00a0perception, and how perceptual signals are converted into neural commands to initiate actions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>NSC 546 Scientific Computing for Neuroscience\u200b<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\">\n<p>This course provides programming techniques in Matlab that are particularly relevant to researchers in&nbsp;sensory systems\/behavioral neuroscience. The goal of the course is for students to develop some&nbsp;proficiency in designing, writing, and debugging computer programs to control experiments, perform&nbsp;data analyses, and simulate simple neural and psychological mechanisms. Accordingly, the lectures focus&nbsp;on experimental design, stimulus presentation, experimental timing, graphical user interfaces, curve&nbsp;fitting, randomization techniques, basic statistics, and customized data plotting, debugging and code&nbsp;optimization techniques. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container\"><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>NSC 510 Sensory and Motor Systems Neuroscience\u200b This is a graduate level course on sensory-motor systems.
