S-CognNeurosci/HiLvlVision&Mem
This course will examine high-level vision and memory from a cognitive neuroscience perspective. We will discuss current brain-based theories of high-level vision and memory, including accounts of visual object recognition, accounts of recognition memory and accounts of amnesia. We will examine the organization of these functions in the brain: Does the brain contain a "module" for faces? Do we have a brain region specialized for "expertise"?
