description:
By
absorbing
electromagnetic
radiation
through
their
eyes,
people
are
able
to
catch
frisbees,
recognize
faces,
and
judge
the
beauty
of
art.
For
most
of
us,
seeing
feels
effortless.
That
feeling
is
misleading.
Seeing
requires
not
only
precise
optics
to
focus
images
on
the
retina,
but
also
the
concerted
action
of
millions
of
nerve
cells
in
the
brain.
This
intricate
circuitry
infers
the
likely
causes
of
incoming
patterns
of
light
and
transforms
that
information
into
feelings,
thoughts,
and
actions.
In
this
course
we
will
study
how
light
evokes
electrical
activity
in
a
hierarchy
of
specialized
neural
networks
that
accomplish
many
unique
aspects
of
seeing.
Students
will
have
the
opportunity
to
focus
their
study
on
particular
aspects,
such
as
color,
motion,
object
recognition,
learning,
attention,
awareness,
and
how
sight
can
be
lost
and
recovered.
Throughout
the
course
we
will
discuss
principles
of
neural
information
coding
(e.qg.,
receptive
field
tuning,
adaptation,
normalization,
etc.)
that
are
relevant
to
other
areas
of
neuroscience,
as
well
as
medicine,
engineering,
art
and
design.
Prerequisites:
Introduction
to
Neuroscience,
or
Introduction
to
Psychology

By
completing
this
course
you
will
gain:
o
broad
familiarity
with
the

of
the
human

ability

Student

is
key.
You

Reflection
essays:
Each
week
you
will
turn
in
a
1-
or
2-page
reflection
essay
that
has
three
parts:
(1)
A
summary
of
a
key
idea
in
that
week’s
assigned
readings
that
caught
your
interest.
Describe
what
the
idea
is
and
how
it
was
investigated
in
the
article(s)
you
read.
(2)
One
paragraph
about
how
this
idea
may
relate
to
your
own
life
experience,
a
medical
issue,
or
technological
design.
(3)
Questions
you
have
about
the
readings.
If
the
idea
you
summarized
in
part
1
was
from
only
one
of
the
readings,
be
sure
to
include
guestions
about
the
other
readings.
Part
3
should
be
much
shorter
than
the
others.
The
reflection
essay
is
due
by
the
start
of
class
that
week.
It
does
not
have
to
be
perfectly
polished
prose,
but
it
does
have
to
show
that
you
read
and
thought
about
the
material.
A
reflection
essay
is
not
due
during
the
week
you
are
presenting
your
final
project.

Concept
definition:
One
week
you
will
define
a
concept
for
your
classmates.
The
concept
will
help
everyone
understand
the
readings
for
the
following
week,
and
will
be
assigned
to
you
the
week
before
you
present
it.
You
can
learn
about
the
concept
through

Quizzes:
There
will
be
three
quizzes
during
the
first
half
of
the
semester,
conducted
on
Canvas
outside
of
class.
Each
quiz
will
be
available
for
three
days,
from
a
Friday
at
noon
to
a
Monday
at
noon,
and
you
will
have
1
hour
to
complete
it
after
starting.
The
quizzes
will
cover
the
key
principles
from
the
readings
and
class
discussions,
with
a
mixture
of
multiple-choice
questions
and
short
essays.
o
Final
project:
You
will
pick
one
aspect
of
vision
to
study
in
detail.
Potential
topics
are
listed
below.
On
October
8%,
you
will
submit
a
list
of
your
top
three
topics.
Topics
outside
the
list
will
be
considered,
and
topics
will
be
assigned
ensure
the
course
covers
an
interesting
range.
A
one-page
final
project
proposal
is
due
on
October
22nd.
The
instructor
will
help
you
modify
the
proposal
to
meet
all
the
project
requirements.
The
project
must
cover
a
specific
visual
phenomenon
within
the
assigned
topic.
For
instance,
if
the
topic
is
color,
the
specific
phenomenon
could
be
color
blindness,
or
a
peculiar
color
illusion.
If
the
topic
is
consciousness,
the
phenomenon
could
be
subliminal
processing
during
binocular
rivalry.
You
will
give
a
30-minute
in-class
presentation,
during
one
of
the
sessions
between
November
9"
and
December
7th.
The
in-class
presentation
must
answer
four
questions:
(1)
What
is
the
phenomenon,
in
terms
of
perception
and
behavior?
(2)
How
is
it
measured?
(3)
What
is
one
potential
neural
basis
of
the
phenomenon?
(4)
How
is
the
neural
activity
measured
or
manipulated?
The
presentation
must
include
some
visual
aids
and
must
discuss
at
least
two
empirical
studies.
The
presentation
must
also
link
this
phenomenon
to
some
of
the
key
principles
discussed
in
the
first
half
of
the
course
(e.g.,
population
coding,
adaptation,
etc.).
Finally,
at
least
one
week
in
advance
of
the
presentation,
you
must
provide
one
article
for
the
rest
of
the
class
to
read
and
write
their
reflection
essay
about.
At
the
end
of
the
semester,
you
will
submit
a
final
paper.
The
paper
is
about
the
same
topic
as
the
presentation.
It
must
answer
the
same
four
questions
as
the
presentation,
and
two
more:
(1)
What
is
the
clinical
relevance
of
this
phenomenon?
For
instance,
is
it
known
to
differ
in
a
clinical
population?
Or
does
it
reveal
something
about
the
brain
that
could
be
useful
for
devising
a
medical
intervention?
(If
your
topic
is
itself
a
clinical
condition,
then
consider
the
reverse
question:
what does
this
condition
tell
us
about
normal
vision?)
