Professor Janusonis was the best Professor I've ever had. He is passionate about the topics and exposes you to things you would never learn. You have to read a lot but it is worth it if you are truly interested in the brain. I am forever grateful to Dr. Janusonis for what he taught us in this course. If you want an easy A, don't take this class.

There's only two exams. Imo the reader questions that are on the exams are very straightforward. Questions I missed were on the lecture material so make sure you attend lecture because he does mention test material that aren't explicitly stated in the slides since his slides are very minimal. Great professor to talk to in office hours! Very smart.

A coding class that will require a lot of graph theory and mathematical knowledge. Not a psych class at all. We were creating fractals by code. He lectures about something completely different to the code that is needed to complete the assignments. He also lectures very quietly and it is difficult to hear. Seems like an interesting guy though

1 midterm, 1 final grade only. Lots of articles, but not all were empirical/hard. All readings were extremely interesting. We learned about phantom limbs in the brain, Capgras delusion, and some anatomy but not much. His lectures blew my mind, but sometimes were hard to stay 100% focused. He is very respected and is a true neuroscientist.

I loved taking this class! There was a LOT of reading however the content is accessible and the testing material is made clear. Lectures were also incredibly interesting! Professor Janusonis is very considerate of his students, helpful in office hours, and an overall great professor deserving more recognition
