Course Syllabus
Abstract
The “Neuroimaging Techniques ” course is one of the core introductory courses of the Programme that give and overview of the methodologies currently at place to study Cognition and Brain Function. Methods such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS), and others provide us with new insights into the structure and function of the human brain along with more widely used electroencephalography (EEG). Recently, with the advent of superconductivity, a multichannel magnetoencephalography (MEG), the method that allow to record the activity of the same neural population as EEG does, came about and have been successfully applied for localizing sources in the brain. Nature and origin of electric, magnetic, NIRS, and blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) responses will be discussed throughout the course. The course is recommended for students of the Master’s program who are using or going to use the advanced neuroimaging methodologies.
Learning Objectives
- This course aims at familiarizing students of our program with contemporary neuroimaging methods to study brain activity non-invasively with a particular emphasis on fMRI, MEG, multichannel EEG, TMS, tDCS, tACS, and eye-tracking. Prior to the seminars and/or hands-on sessions on each methodology, an overview of basic principles and physics of the above-mentioned techniques and methods will be provided. The course is structured such that it will start with the lectures on essentials and basic principles of core methodologies and continues with the advanced topics of the neuroimaging techniques. World leading experts in the a.m. and other methodologies such as e.g. newly developed ontogenetic or brain-machine interfaces will be invited as well. Biomedical applications of neuroimaging will be discussed throughout the lectures with the particular focus on the brain-machine interfaces which are developed et the HSE at the CDM Centre equipped with the brain-navigated TMS and multichannel EEG.
