    You're an amazing teacher Nancy. I don't know a lick of psychology yet I understood you very easily.

    I'm very interested in Cognitive Neuroscience and now spending time studying it. However, after watching this video, I realised I need to study some more pre-material before fully understanding this course. If anyone can give me some info or link, I will really appreciate. I'll also keep googling to see what I can find. Thanks!

      If you visit the syllabus page on the OCW RES.9-003 site there is a general list of prerequisites that you need for these materials: ocw.mit.edu/RES-9-003SU15. You will be able to find a lot of these background materials elsewhere on the OCW site ocw.mit.edu by using the topics search. Good luck with your studies!

      I too am super-interested in this field of study. First, familiarize yourself with the simple rudimentary basics of electricity and how electrons move from negative positive potentials. Nothing happens without that. Learn about cell structure, specifically neuron cell structure. Axons, dendrites, axon hillocks, synapses, ion channels and ligands are the parts that do the heavy lifting. The basics of DNA are important, as well as a thorough understanding of what Evolution by Natural Selection really means. A solid understanding of what fractals are, including the terms recursion, iteration, similar-but-different, would really help.
      After that, Robert Sapolsky's lectures from his Stanford University course called Human Behavioral Biology is just awesome. It is available on TH-cam. He has a couple documentaries on TH-cam that are fascinating as well. I suggest watching them first.
      It's been a while since your post. I hope you have had success with your neuroscientific education.
      I hope this helps. It should.

    At 24:34, I would somewhat disagree with Nancy that no part of the brain can ever be sufficient. I think we should define a new concept, sufficient-given-input, i.e. if you have proper inputs supplied to the module/region, is that module/region sufficient for process X.

      I didnt fully get you at first, but then I did. Yeah youre right.

    • @randomhuman8649
      @randomhuman8649 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      But if it's receiving input from another brain region to complete process X, isn't it then by definition not sufficient? Wouldn't that mean that for any functional process X, the final area involved (the area that finally "completes" the task) would be the only "sufficient" region?
      Sorry I'm sure I'm misunderstanding

    My question is: whether s worth to get a master in Cog Neuroscience?
    My background is in healthcare IT but i want to know whether the ms in CN provide better and easier career development?

      pursuing MS in computational neuro will be good for you. letter you can apply for PhD in cog-neueo or AI in health..etc.

      @@mitocw for up to-date education i believe courses would be better if we can see what professors talk about with the latest advancements in technology and science.
      By the way I am thankful that mit shares these classes online.
      Thank you so much

    Dr. Kanwisher, I truly hope this gets to you. I listen to you summarizing your work and expressing what irritated you and one thing comes to mind. Your privilege and budget allow you to be so detailed in your research. Its not that the rest of us from underserved communities, do not have your resources to express ourselves. We can't even get 150k to finish the masterplan for an African American 3 year ag and tech college to bring our youth through based on heuristic techniques because we can't afford to do what you have a budget to do. Its difficult to explain to the rural kids why they don't have a building to set up a microscope to look at our river water. My friend, your privilage tells me you have nothing to gain from this comment and we have everything to lose for using our noodle. Yet you gain for having the overwhelming privilege you do. What good is your work if rural kids don't understand their development.

    @SebastianBeresniewicz 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great information but the judgementally towards claims she doesn't agree with takes away from her credibility. calling something stupid or idiotic doesn't tell me anything informative other than you don't agree with it and it triggers an emotional response that you cannot control the knee-jerk reaction to
