Description: |
This class covers how the brain controls behavior, and what goes wrong in various diseases, from a neurochemistry perspective. We start by learning about the neurochemicals –neurotransmitters, peptides, growth factors, etc. and move on to their receptors and associated signaling pathways, including gene transcription and epigenetics. An emphasis is placed on primary research literature, experimentation/data analysis and application of knowledge to the interpretation of scientific data. Students will attend research seminars on campus or online and write brief summaries of their understanding. The course culminates in small group presentations about the neurochemistry of diseases of interest, and an individual research review paper on the same topic. Prerequisite: BCSC 240/NSCI 201. BIOL 250 is helpful but not required. |
