Team-taught intensive course. Lectures, readings, and laboratory exercises cover basic mathematical techniques for analysis and modeling of neural systems. Homework sets are based on the MATLAB software package.

Research component of the first-year core curriculum in neural science. Students participate in the research activities in several different laboratories to learn current questions and techniques in neuroscience. Performance is evaluated on the basis of learning the literature and proficiency in laboratory techniques, based on oral and/or written presentations with the laboratory group.
