Best Cognitive Neuroscience Papers for Undergraduates

	A	B	C	D	E	F
1	I'm compiling a list of research papers that would be good for undergraduates taking a cognitive neuroscience class. Some might be important because they introduce an important concept, others just compelling examples that will capture the minds of budding scientists. If you could have undergraduates read 3 cognitive neuroscience papers—and engage with them—what would they be?
