The Osnabrück University offers every Semester a wide variety of courses in the field of Data Science. The specific orientation and focus of the course is in the hands of the responsible lecturer and of course also depends on the degree programme for which it is offered.

For example, the courses offered by Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Econometrics, Psychology, Social Research and working groups in the field of Data Science are generally more application-oriented, while the courses offered at the Institute of Mathematics tend to have a more theoretical focus.

Beschreibung

This is a block course that will take place in February. We will provide more details soon via mail.

The goal in this course is to provide a broad overview of the topics of Sleep and dreams. We will discuss these questions: Why do we sleep? Which sleep stages fulfill which function (for example, memory consolidation)? What are the neurobiological bases of sleep? What happens during sleep deprivation? How is sleep researched? What are the sleep disorders and how do you treat them? How are certain psychopathologies such as depression related to sleep? How is sleep recorded? What technical devices and analysis tools facilitate the study of sleep? Why do we dream? What insights can we gain from lucid dream research for consciousness research? How do certain medications and other substances, or diet and exercise affect sleep?
The format of the course is to be a mix of presentations from the students and lecturers.
