Dear Students, In the Fall 2014, I will teach the Neurophysics course on graduate and undergraduate level. This course will cover theoretical findings and experimental approaches provided by physics. The overlap between physics and neuroscience is a growing area of interdisciplinary quantitative research in neuroscience. During the course you will learn to write your own programs inMatlab and to conduct bifurcation analysis of neuronal dynamics using program Content. Please, take a look at the flyer attached. Next week we will have Informational Session for Neurophysics where I will present the course and answer questions. The session will be held at Classroom: 309 Classroom South, July 21st at 1:00 - 2:00pm.
