| This lecture gives an introduction into the peripheral, subcortical and cortical parts of the sensory and motor systems. Focuses are on the visual, somatosensory and auditory system, the hippocampus, and different parts of the motor system. Furthermore, it includes the topography of system’s functions in the cortex and imaging techniques that reveal it. The lectures are held in English. This lecture forms part of the lecture series "Introduction to Neurobiology and Biophysics", consisting of four different lectures: I: Membranes, Neurons and Brains; II: Systems Neurophysiology; III: Measurements and Models; IV: Systems and Signals. This entire series is offered on a yearly basis: lectures I and III during the Winter Semester, lectures II and IV during the Sommer Semester. Lectures I and II focus on biological and computational aspects of modern brain science, lectures III and IV on methodological aspects of experimentation, data analysis and model building. Lecture I is a prerequisiste for lecture II, which covers brain function at a system’s level. Lectures III and IV are accompanied by exercises, elaborating the concepts and methods introduced in the lectures. |
