This course provides a comprehensive introduction to neurobiology and the interdisciplinary field of neuroscience, focusing on the brain and nervous system. Students will examine the mechanisms behind thought, emotion, and behavior by exploring how the nervous system coordinates these complex functions. Through lectures, interactive discussions, and hands-on activities, students will investigate the molecular, cellular, and circuit-level foundations of human behavior. Topics include brain development, neural communication, and the effects of injury and disease. In addition, the course highlights diverse career paths in neurobiology, including opportunities in academic research, biotechnology, drug discovery, clinical practice, biomedical engineering, and neuroinformatics.
