UNDERGRADUATE WORKSHOP ON PERCEPTION, PLASTICITY, AND ACTION 

(FELLOWSHIPS AVAILABLE)

August 8-10, 1996

University of Rochester 
Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences,
Center for Visual Science, and the Program in Neuroscience


The University of Rochester will host a Summer Workshop for 
Undergraduates on August 8-10, 1996. The Workshop will consist of
lectures and laboratory demonstrations by the Rochester faculty 
on the coordination of perceptual mechanisms with those that
control movement. It will also focus on how this coordination 
is established during development and modified by experience. 
These issues will be approached from neural, behavioral, and 
computational perspectives. Fellowships covering travel and living 
expenses will be provided for 20 students. Preference will be given 
to Juniors who plan to pursue advanced study in the behavioral and
neural sciences.
