Title: Brain imaging – Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)
The course combines theoretical and practical principles of magnetic resonance imaging with hands-on experience in analyzing real MRI data. Our focus will be on the visual system. Emphasis will be placed on fMRI technique that allows us to measure brain activity during performing different perceptual tasks. The goal of the course is for students to acquire a basic understanding of what is measured in fMRI experiments, what are the limitations imposed by the method, how to design fMRI experiments and analyze the results, and what sort of conclusions can be drawn from those experiments.
