How does the brain support behaviors such as our ability to learn, to remember, or process incoming information? How is each of our brains unique? How and why do each of us “see” the world differently? The class will introduce the broad landscape of the field of cognitive neuroscience through both readings and through doing hands-on psychological experiments.

A lot of science is meant to be read by scientists, but when it comes to something as inherently interesting and relatable as the brain, it is important to make this material digestible, and that is the scope of the course!

This course is open to all students. Students who previously took “Brain and Behavior - How Are They Linked?” are encouraged to come back for Part 2 since this course will cover new information. Part 1 is not a prerequisite for this course.


Clara is a PhD student at Dartmouth College and has been working at the intersection of neuroscience and psychology research for the last seven years. One of the questions that her research explores is how and why we reach variable interpretations (or memories!) of the same experiences.
