Overview
About the program
Comprehending a system as complex as the human mind requires the integration of different levels of analysis.
To this end, students in the Cognitive and Computational Sciences concentration at Emory University learn the concepts and theories behind the science of human cognition, and the techniques that can be used to study it from cognitive science, neuroscience, neuropsychology, and computer science.
Time-tested methods from cognitive psychology in combination with techniques from data science are giving rise to a new kind of cognitive scientist: one capable of linking the mental processes governing everyday activities to neural processes in the brain.
Programme Structure
Collaborative research projects include:
- memory enhancement using direct amygdala stimulation
- digital phenotyping of mental illness and the language network
- the neural basis of conceptual integration of concepts,
- neural connectivity analyses in face and place networks
