Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience

Catalog description

How does the brain change over the first few years of life and how do these changes support changes in cognition? What brain architecture is present when you are born, and how does it change with maturation vs. experience? How does early brain structure and function constrain later learning and plasticity? We will have lectures on foundational studies and discussions of current empirical papers. Prereq: 3313 or 3513.
