This course gives an overview of the methodologies currently at place to study cognition and brain function based on neuroimaging and brain intervention techniques. Methods such as Electroencephalography (EEG), Magnetoencephalography (MEG), Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), Eye-tracking, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS), and others will be respectively introduced. The nature and origin of electric, magnetic, light responses of human brain, principles of data collection and analysis will be discussed throughout the course. This course is expected to provide the students with new insights into the structure and function of the human brain. Lab sessions will also be carried out to provide students with hand-on training on using different equipment. The course is recommended for students who are using or going to use the advanced neuroimaging methodologies in their experimental work.
