Programming for Cognitive and Brain Sciences (PCBS)

*** WORK IN PROGRESS ***

Students in Cognitive-(Neuro)-science need to learn programming:

  1. to understand how computers work, because of the importance of the Computational Theory of Mind in Cognitive Science.
  2. to automate the boring stuff (e.g. repetitive work on files, web scrapping,)
  3. to do reproducible science: simulating models, designing experiments, running them, analysing data, ...

The purpose of the PCBS course is to make students able to write clean code in order to solve the tasks that are typically encountered in cognitive or neurosciences (data manipulation and analysis, creation of stimuli, programming of real-time experiments, simulations...).
