Mike X Cohen
I am a neuroscientist (brain scientist) and associate professor at the Radboud University in the Netherlands. Ihave an active research lab that has beenfunded bythe US, German, andDutch governments, European Union, hospitals,and private organizations.
But you're here because of my teaching, so let me tell you about that:
I have almost 20 years of experience teaching programming, data analysis, signal processing, statistics, linear algebra,and experiment design. I've taught undergraduate students, PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers, and full professors. I teach in "traditional"university courses, special week-long intensive courses, and Nobel prize-winning research labs. I have >50 hours of online lectures on neuroscience data analysis that you can find on my website and youtube channel.AndI've written severaltechnical books aboutthese topics (look them up on amazon!) with a few more on the way.
I'm not trying to show off -- I'm trying to convince you that you've come to the right place to maximize your learning from an instructor who has spent nearly two decades refining and perfecting his teaching style.
Over 82,000 students have watched over 6,000,000 minutes of my courses (that's over 10 years of continuous learning). Come find out why!
Ilook forward to seeing you soon in one (or more)of my courses.
