Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Know the principles of structure and function of the human brain. 2. Have a general idea of the methods of neurophysiological studies of the brain 3. Have basic computer skills, use methods of statistical analysis of experimental results.
Course content
In the course of studying this course the mechanisms of signal transduction, formation of membrane potentials, different types of total electrical activity and evoked potentials, activity of the main functional neural networks of the brain are considered. The dynamics of information processes of the brain in the cycle of vigor, at rest and during cognitive load, emotions, various behaviors and mental and organic pathology; gives the concept of canonical and non-canonical neural networks (significant, central executive and default, attention systems, mirror neurons); the role of the expansion of the associative cortex is revealed. Knowledge gained from the discipline "Electrophysiology" can be used in research of physiological sciences, in particular, such as CNS physiology, psychophysiology, pathological physiology, physiology of work and sports, age physiology, and in interdisciplinary sciences (neuropsychology, engineering psychology, neuroeconomics, etc.).
