| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 1692 euroscience is an interdisciplinary field that seeks to understand the structure and functions of the nervous system. This course includes topics on the broad history of behavioral neuroscience, parts of the nervous system, and a cursory overview of imaging/recording/histology. We also cover basic neurophysiology/chemistry of action potentials and neurotransmission (with some neurobiology of drug effects). Lastly, we explore sensorimotor processing (i.e. reflex arcs), basic sensory transduction and neuroanatomy of perception (sensory pathways from periphery to primary sensory cortex). Prerequisite(s): This course is not open to students who have previously taken HC Psych 217, HC Psych 260, or BMC Psych 218; Enrollment Limit: 35; Lottery Preference(s): Neuroscience Majors; followed by sophomores, followed by first year students. For Fall only, 15 spaces reserved for first years. Natural Science, C: Physical and Natural Processes (; Hav: NA, C) |
