Psychology 349SE - Sem: Sixth Sense

This course will be focused on unique sensory experiences, mainly those of deaf, blind, and synesthetic individuals, from a neuroplasticity perspective. We will explore how our sensory experience of the world shapes the brain and vice versa, and how disadvantages in one sense may contribute to advantages in others. The course will be a seminar, with in-depth reading of journal articles covering behavioral and neuroimaging studies.

Prereq: PSYCH-200 or PSYCH-204.
