The course "Foundations of Neuroscience" delves into the neural and biological foundations of influence and persuasion, providing a comprehensive understanding of how the brain processes sensory, emotional, and cognitive information. You will explore key brain regions and their role in decision-making, memory, attention, and emotion, essential for effective communication strategies. By gaining hands-on experience with neuroscience measurement techniques, you will learn to assess the impact of influence campaigns through implicit and explicit methods.
