Faculte de medecine
An advanced course that covers brain function at multiple spatial and temporal scales ranging from the single neuron and the brief millisecond actions of its ion channels to spatially extended neural networks linked by synaptic interactions and acting over seconds to days. Connections from neural network activity to behaviourally evident outcomes, e.g. perception, motor control and memory storage, will be discussed. Focus will be on the normal functioning of the nervous system with some exploration of how disruptions of neural function can lead to neurological and psychiatric diseases. Modern neuroscience methods, including mathematical approaches to quantifying neuronal activity, will be emphasized.
