Course Description:
This course provides a comprehensive view of the cellular and molecular biology of the nervous system. Emphasis will be placed on advanced experimental techniques and approaches for investigating neural circuits to understand organism development and behavior. This course will rely mainly on primary scientific papers and with focus on studies involving classic animal model systems. Grading and assessment will be based on class participation, in the form of in student-led presentations in- depth discussion, and homework assignments, as well as two in-class exams. This course assumes a solid foundation in cell biology and molecular biology. |
