We will focus on the following domains of study: memory, neural plasticity, decision-making, and social cognition. The course will examine human neuroscience methods and research to understand domain in 1) healthy young adults 2) across development and 3) in aging, disease, and/or brain damage. The course is designed around class discussion and critical analysis of research findings. Lectures will provide the context for these discussions.
