Modiwl PPP-1005:
Brain and Mind

Ffeithiau’r Modiwl

Rhedir gan School of Human and Behavioural Sciences

10.000 Credyd neu 5.000 Credyd ECTS

Semester 2

Trefnydd: Dr Richard Binney

Amcanion cyffredinol

Brain and Mind is an introduction to the functional anatomy of the human brain.This module will be the opportunity for you to approach the way in which the brain implements the human mind.

Cynnwys cwrs

We will start Brain and Mind with a General Introduction to the concept of mental representation, i.e., the basic concept behind that of mind.

Chapter 1 (split in two parts over two weeks) will be devoted to the anatomy of the brain, which is a prerequisite for you to understand the biological bases of psychology. When possible, brain structures are described in relation to their function or at least some aspects of their reason to be.

Chapter 2 (in two parts also) will look at the elementary unit of thinking in your brain, the neuron. Then, we will start reviewing particular aspects of normal and abnormal human behaviour and relate behaviour back to specific brain structures.

Chapters 3 & 4 will be guest lectures given by Vice-Chancellor Professor Oliver Turnbull, a renowned expert on emotion and executive function who will address the core topics of emotion in his first lecture and that of consciousness in his second lecture. In Chapter 5, we will look at vision, with a special emphasis of human face perception.

Chapter 6 will turn our attention to sound and remind you of aspects of language production and comprehension covered in the first semester but with a stronger focus on the brain.

In Chapter 7, Prof Turnbull will be back to tell you about animal minds and how they differ from the human mind, or not.

Finally, in Chapter 8, I will introduce some important aspects of functional cerebral asymmetry in relation to the main division of the human brain into hemispheres and propose an idea to conceptualise the human brain not as one, single entity, but rather two, three, four, or more interconnected systems.

Throughout the module, we will avoid very detailed descriptions of the mechanisms underlying human cognitive function and rather introduce general ideas about ways in which we can relate psychological function to brain anatomy. The whole course will serve as a foundation for the wide range of courses in which the brain (as a biological organ) is considered.

It is hoped that the academic year 2021-2022 will see the return of the Hands-on Brain Anatomy Practicals, following a year in which we had to skip the live practicals due tot he pandemic. In a hands-on practical session you will be given a once-in-lifetime opportunity to handle a real human brain in your hands and to be guided through its structure by an expert. Whilst participation in this practical is voluntary, it is highly recommended!

At the beginning of each core lecture, we will go over 10 sample MCQ questions concerning the previous lecture, which will be corrected immediately. The final exam will feature a random selection of 40 of the MCQ questions presented and discussed throughout the course of the module, so if you attend the MCQ corrections you should easily pass that component of the final exam in May.

In addition, like the year before, we hope to hold a series of optional Symposia, together with David Ellis, Doctoral Researcher and Lecturer in Philosophy & Religion. The sessions start with a live discussion around questions posted by you, before we open the session to everyone who wants to participate. These extra symposia are optional and voluntary and they have been very popular in the past.

Let it be known that the amount of information your brain can store is essentially unlimited (or at least that we can’t really tell how much information it can store). The more you read, explore, look at images, watch videos, and discuss ideas with others, the more you will learn, remember, and bloom mentally. In fact, the more you learn, the more you enable your brain to learn!

The ultimate goal for me as module organiser of Brain and Mind: Not only make you realise that you have a beautiful, lively, highly sophisticated organ capable of wonders sitting in your skull, but also that you can expand its abilities beyond your wildest dreams. A motivated brain has the privilege of being able to evolve itself!

Meini Prawf

trothwy

Adequate answer to the question, largely based on lecture material. No real development of arguments.

da

Reasonably comprehensive coverage. Well organised and structured. Good understanding of the material.

ardderchog

Comprehensive and accurate coverage of the area clarity of argument and expression. Depth of insight into theoretical issues

Canlyniad dysgu

  1. Use a basic neuroscience vocabulary and demonstrate a capacity of orientation in the brain organ. Major subdivisions (such as the temporal lobe) should be known as well as essential subregions (e.g. primary auditory cortex).

  2. Localise the essential landmarks on external anatomy and common sections of the brain, and understand the principles of functiional subdivisions of the human cortex.

  3. Name the different parts of a neuron and show an understanding of the fundamental principles of neural communication.

  4. Demonstrate a basic understanding of structure-function relationships for major anatomical structures in the human brain.

  5. Illustrate the principles of the clinical approach, i.e. the characterization of a link between brain lesions and neuropsychological symptoms.

  6. Understand the importance of obtaining converging evidence from different sources (anatomy, physiology, lesion data, functional imaging and/or electrophysiology) in order to specify structure/function relationships.
