In this seminar we will examine the neurobiological processes that underlie parental behavior. Students will come away from the course understanding (1) how the experience of pregnancy and/or parenthood manifests in relevant neural circuitry to yield complex caregiving behavior, (2) how neuropsychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and addiction interact with parental neurobiology and behavior, and (3) how neuroscience and psychology researchers approach answering the most pressing questions in the subfield of parental behavior.
