This course will introduce graduate students to landmark papers in Behavioral Neuroscience. Each week, a student will discuss a landmark journal article in the field. They will put the paper in historical perspective by answering the following questions: What led to the publication? Was it accepted by the field, or was it rejected, because it contradicted dogma? Did it result in a paradigm shift? What came next? How did it change the development of the discipline? Although there will be no final exam, there will be a term paper.
