Advanced Topics in Neurophysiology

Graduate

This course emphasizes synaptic organization of the brain. It examines how physical stimuli are converted by neurons into sensations and how movement is controlled through integrative neuronal action. The mechanisms of learning and memory will be discussed at the neuronal and molecular levels. Important experimental approaches in contemporary neurophysiology will also be introduced. (Note: It is recommended that students taking this course have completed Principle Neuroscience (55-258) or equivalent.) 235 Winter 2027 Academic Calendar
