SUMMARY:The Visual Sense – Illusions and Reality (half course throughout the year)
DESCRIPTION:<p>Till Hartmann / Medical School / <a href="mailto:Till@hms.harvard.edu">Till@hms.harvard.edu</a></p><p>*Neurobiology 95hfv, Tuesdays, 7 – 8:30 p.m., Barker Center 024 / first week meeting Tuesdays, September 4th, 7 – 7:45 p.m., Barker Center 024</p><p>Vision is arguably our most dominant sense, but sometimes what we see is not what it seems. Visual illusions have long perplexed and fascinated our minds. However, illusions aren't just amusing; they can be extremely helpful in understanding the underlying mechanisms of our brain. In this course we will explore illusions to study the visual system starting at the retina ending at perception/behavior. With each new illusion, we will learn about the hierarchy of the visual system, information processing, and neural circuits. Prerequisites: LPSA/LS 1a, MCB 80 and permission of the instructor. Enrollment limited to 12. (catalog # 67253)</p>
