This course will cover contemporary methods and questions in human neuroscience across the lifespan. This course deeply examines several areas of human neuroscience rather than a broad overview of the field. Students 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.

Offered as NSC 130 and PSY 130. Introduction to brain-behavior relations in humans and other species. An overview of anatomical, neural, hormonal and neurochemical bases of behavior in both normal and clinical cases. Major topics include the biological basis of sexual behavior, sleep, emotions, depression, schizophrenia, autism, ADHD and neurological disorders. The course focuses on clinical cases in human neuroscience. Open to entering students.
