Teilnahmevoraussetzungen
attendance in pre-meeting, priority is given to students who attended BM Computational Neuroscience
Kompetenzziele
+ Neurosci. knowlg. Expt. methods Independent research Scient. literature + Social skills
+ Interdiscipl. knowlg. + Maths/Stats/Progr.
Data present./disc. + Scientific English + Ethics
Students perform individual research projects to learn:
  • planning, performing and analyzing experiments and / or simulations
  • working with scientific background literature on the specific context of the project
  • oral presentation and discussion of backgrounds and results in the lab seminar
  • write a scientific report
  • prepare and present a scientific poster
Module can serve as preparation for a Master's thesis.
Modulinhalte
Students can choose between five options (explained in more detail during the pre-meeting):
1. invertebrate somatosensory system (Kretzberg)
2. vertebrate visual system (Greschner)
3. vertebrate auditory system (Hildebrandt)
4. human perception-action cycle (Rieger)
5. advanced analysis of physiological data (Anemüller)
In options 1-4, depending on the student's interests and background, projects can be focussed on
  • experiments (neurophysiology / behavior)
  • simulation
  • data analysis or
  • combinations of these approaches
In all systems, project can be focussed on experiments (neurophysiology / behavior), simulation, data analysis or combinations of these approaches.
Literaturempfehlungen
Will be given to the students depending on the project
