Neuroscience Fundamentals to AI Powered Insights

Accelerated Learning Program (ALP)

How do our brains enable us to think, feel, and remember? What roles do genes and cellular processes play in shaping cognition and behavior? How are cutting-edge AI technologies transforming the way we study and understand the brain? In this course, you'll explore these questions and more as you journey through the fundamentals of neuroscience and its modern applications. This class provides an introduction to key concepts in neuroscience and AI-driven analysis, offering insights into how molecular and cellular mechanisms contribute to cognition, emotion, and behavior. In this class, you will explore the ever-growing frontier of complex brains at a systems level, discovering how you can contribute to emerging Neuroscience. With innovative AI technologies, neuroscientists are uncovering novel biological pathways from genes to cells and deepening our understanding of brain mechanisms. This course provides an introduction to genomics, neurobiology, and AI analyses, expanding your knowledge about how basic cellular and molecular processes relate to cognition, emotion, and behavior. While covering several cutting-edge topics, you can delve into a specific area of neuroscience, learn more about a particular brain disease or process, and practice scientific communication and exploration.

All ALP students should bring a personal laptop or tablet for use in class and during evening sessions.
