The origins and principles of cognitive neuroscience and the types of research that are conducted in the field. Classic, seminal, and current studies on how the brain performs various tasks (e.g., language, memory, attention, perception). Also, the variety of different brain imaging techniques available to scientists in the field of neuroscience (e.g., MRI, fMRI, PET, CT, EEG and MEG) will be discussed.
