The UQ Centre for Perception and Cognitive Neuroscience (CPCN) hosted a 2-day workshop on November 28-29, with half-days of lectures covering the major methods used in cognitive neuroscience research: EEG, functional MRI, TMS, and Connectivity analysis. Lectures were given by the experts in these various fields and covered a brief introduction to the methods leading to more advanced topics on the application of these methods to the study of brain processes underlying behaviour.
