The program will attempt to synthesize contemporary experimental neuroscience with broader perspectives from systems and evolutionary biology, ecology and ethology, machine learning and psychology, medicine, and beyond. Each course will begin with a basic introduction to a field of study and progress current research issues and will therefore be suitable to students from a wide range of backgrounds and independently accessible.
