This is a collection of resources that may be helpful for the course.

Visualizing The Brain

BrainVoyager Brain Tutor

  • Must be downloaded (40 mbs for mac version)
  • Basic tool for learning gross neuroanatomy

Scalable Brain Atlas

  • More advanced tool
  • Allows viewers to ‘see’ specific regions across slices of the brain

Neurosynth

  • Meta analysis tool that allows users to view most commonly reported locations for given terms like ‘memory’ or ‘cognitive control’, or to view words most associated with activation in a region (these words tend to be either psychological constructs or anatomical labels)
  • This is a fun tool, but remember that we are dealing with (possibly noisy) aggregation across studies
