The lecture Systems Neuroscience 1 addresses the principles of
sensory processing, the transduction of adequate stimuli, and ensuing sensory-motor interactions. A detailed description of the peripheral and central
stages of each specific sensory system is accompanied by theoretical
concepts of the underlying neuronal processing. The lecture is given
weekly (VIA ZOOM; 2 SWS) and requires regular attendance and a final exam. The
following sensory systems are covered by participating lecturers:
-The mechanosensory lateral line system of aquatic animals and its role in the detection, identification and localisation of objects on the water surface or within the water body
-Electroreception: peripheral and central properties of independently evolved systems, and the systems’ role in object detection, orientation, and communication
-The ontogenesis, organization and plasticity of the vestibular system and general aspects of sensory-motor interaction
-Properties of diverse magnetoreceptive systems-Principles of several chemoreceptive systems, peripheral and central processes of the gustatory and the olfactory system, multimodal interactions
-Peripheral and central stages of somatosensory systems, and their function
-Mechanisms of pain, and temperature perception
