This course explores the world of cognitive neuropsychology by looking into true stories of individuals who have suffered brain injuries or disorders that lead to very specific deficits. For example, we consider the artist whose visual world turned grey overnight, the amputee whose phantom arm sensations were remapped onto his cheek, the hippie whose memory left him stranded in the 60s, the attorney who couldn't recognize her own face in the mirror, and the surgeon who twitched uncontrollably with Tourette syndrome. Cases like these deepen our understanding of the inner workings of the human brain. Prerequisites: PSYC 157 AND CO1 course Credits: 4 Clock Hours - (Lect-Lab): (4-0)
