The Neuroscience of Relational Reasoning: From Primate Neurophysiology to Human Neuroimaging

Friday, March 8, 2019 · Paris, France

Neuroscience

Relational reasoning is fundamental to human learning and cognition. This symposium features recent studies that use neurophysiology and neuroimaging to investigate the neural underpinnings of relational reasoning in human and nonhuman primates. Talks also address how the neural processing of relational reasoning relates to academic skills in children and adolescents.
