# QuantCog: Introduction to Quantified Cognition

This repository contains the content for the course, an *Introduction to Quantified Cognition*.

You can find the syllabus [here](syllabus/syllabus.pdf).

The [notebooks](notebooks) folder contains Jypyter notebooks for each lesson.

## Annotated Bibliography

The following are papers and other sources relevant for the class:
