Cursusdoelen
  • new developments in neuroscience are to a large extent driven by technical advances. The aim of this course is to introduce these advances such that students by the end of the course will
  • have gained a comprehensive overview of advanced neuroscience techniques
  • understand the possibilities and limitations provided by the new techniques
  • be able to read and critically evaluate research papers applying advanced neuroscience techniques
  • be able to identify the technique most suited to answer a given research question
Inhoud
Neuroscience techniques are undergoing a rapid development. These developments open up new possibilities for investigating the brain as a network at various levels. We will introduce a range of advanced techniques which currently are being applied in neuroscience in particular to study brain networks. We aim at covering both the basics of the techniques and how they are applied to address specific research questions.
The topics to be covered include:
  • advanced MR imaging
    • mathematical models of the BOLD response
    • new acquisition techniques for BOLD
    • imaging layers and columns
    • MR spectroscopy
    • resting state fMRI
    • fMRI combined with EEG
  • stimulations approaches
    • TMS combined with EEG
    • deep brain stimulation
    • optogenetics
  • two-photon imaging
  • advanced electrophysiology
    • multi-unit recordings in animals
    • intracranial recordings in humans
    • spectral estimation and cross-frequency interaction in multi-channel data
