Neurobiology of Learning and Memory

About this course

This course explores learning and memory from molecular to behavioral levels. Topics include how brain systems contribute to learning and memory, links between synaptic structures and their functions in learning and memory, and experimental tools (traditional and modern) to study learning and memory.

By the end of the course, you will have the tools to grow as a neuroscientist, including the abilities to apply learning and memory concepts to new situations and to interpret and draw conclusions from research. This class also has a meta-learning component where you will gain a better understanding of your own learning and memory processes.

Pre-requisites

One year of biology and one year of chemistry at the university level. It is highly recommended, but not required, that students have taken the equivalent of an introductory neuroscience course.
