SUMMER INSTITUTE IN COGNITIVE NEUROSCIENCE
at The University of California, Davis

	The 1994 Summer Institute will be held at the University of California,
Davis, from July 10 through 23.  The two week course will examine how
information about the brain bears on issues in cognitive science, and how
approaches in cognitive science apply to neuroscience research.  A
distinguished international faculty will lecture on current topics in brain
plasticity, strategies of neuroencoding, and evolution.  Laboratorites and
demonstrations will provide practical experience with cognitive
neuropsychology experiments, connectionist/computational modeling, and
neuroimaging techniques.  At every stage, the relationship between
cognitive processes and underlying neural circuits will be explored.  The
Foundation is providing room/board and limited support for travel.

Faculty Include:
Richard Andersen, Max Bear, Ira Black, Kenneth H. Britten, Simon Baron
Cohen, Leda Cosmides, Randy Gallistel, Michael S. Gazzaniga, Charles
Gilbert, Charles M. Gray, Eric Knudsen, Peter Marler, Michael Merzenich,
Reid Montague, Steven Pinker, V. Ramachandran, Gregg Recanzone, Barry
Richmond, Mitch Sutter, Timothy Tonini, John Tooby, and many others.
