In this course, we will explore diseases of memory as well as extreme instances of phenomenal memory. We will review primary research literature and case studies to explore the changes that underlie addiction and memory. After reviewing the scientific literature, we will examine memory-related pathways in the brain. This course will enable students to relate behavioral changes to changes in brain function.
