437 Kognitive Neurowissenschaft der Aufmerksamkeit und des Bewusstseins

Alex Gamma, Katharina Henke Westerholt, Daniel Kiper, Adrian Schwaninger
Donnerstag 18-20 KOL-F-123

Beschreibung
Dieses interdisziplinäre Seminar fokussiert Aufmerksamkeit und Bewusstsein. Verschiedene Ansätze der Neurowissenschaft und der Wahrnehmungspsychologie werden diskutiert. Die Vorlesungen bestehen aus Vorträgen der Dozenten und Präsentationen der Studenten. Dieser Kurs wird im Nachdiplomprogramm der Neurowissenschaften und als Leistungsnachweis in der Allgemeinen Psychologie (Prof. W. Marx) angerechnet. Regelmässige Teilnahme wird vorausgesetzt.
