Section Title:
Mentoring
Section Info:
To accompany implementation of multiple-mentor framework and a shift away from “guru” mentoring (a dominant paradigm in clinical science) the purpose of this seminar series is to (1) describe the multiple-mentor framework, (2) introduce the Multiple-Mentor Map, (3) assist attendees with identifying their mentoring needs in several broad areas outlined by the Multiple-Mentor Map, (4) identify multiple individuals who could be mentors in the identified areas, and (5) increase attendees' on-going self-reflection about areas that are strengths and their expectations of mentoring relationships. Participation in the seminar series involves active participation, consistent attendance, completion of the Multiple-Mentor Map, and identification of 1 – 2 individuals who the trainee will ask to serve as mentors in 1 – 2 substantive areas. By the end of the seminar series, attendees will be asked to share what they have learned about multiple-mentor framework along with areas that worked well and areas that did not work so well. Restricted to Psychology Clinical Community Doctoral Students. Meeting time and location TBD.

Dev. Cog. Neuroscience
Section Info:
This course will ask how neuroscience has informed our understanding of the nature, origins, and development of human cognition. We will focus on the use of fMRI, MRI, EEG/ERP, and fNIRS with human infants, children, and adults, while also incorporating findings from comparative neurophysiology and behavior. Test cases will include the investigation of language, literacy, mathematics, and social cognitive development.

Section Title:
Speaking and Writing
Section Info:
This seminar provides hands-on experience with writing and speaking for an audience outside of your area of research specialization. It is open to students in all areas of psychology who already have good English writing proficiency within their sub-discipline. It is not a basic English writing course. If you are not already a proficient writer in English, the class would not be appropriate for you. It requires weekly writing and/or speaking and will address written formats such as science blogging, opinion/editorial writing, book reviewing, and magazine-style feature writing. Speaking will include TED-style science talks as well as talks for non-scientists. Students will provide stylistic, structural, and organizational feedback for their peers in the class. The broader goal is to improve your ability to communicate with people outside of your specialty, a skill that generalizes to giving an effective job talk and to interviewing.

Prac Issues in Cog & Networks
Section Info:
Practical issues in cognitive control research and Network Neuroscience This course focuses on conceptual and practical issues in the research of cognitive control, as well as the critical discussion of relevant current literature. Cognitive control functions enable top-down modulation of information processing in the brain, and are central to all goal-directed behavior. We will discuss practical research aspects, from experimental design to data collection and analysis, with particular emphasis on Network Neuroscience approaches to communication across brain regions.
