BioNB2220. INTRODUCTION TO NEUROSCIENCE. Course Director Spring, 2013.
[Team taught by Drs. Harris-Warrick, Hopkins, Bass, Hoy, Linster, and Booker]
A broad introduction to Neuroscience, from the cellular and molecular levels to
the level of integrated neural systems, and from the biology of animal nervous
systems to the human brain, both in normal function, and in disease. This team-taught
course is intended for students who have already taken Introductory Biology, but
who wish to gain an introduction to the biology of the nervous system from a broad
perspective. Offered as a 3 credit (lecture only) option; as a 4
credit (with discussion section), or as a 5-credit writing-intensive option.

FALL
BioNB 4240 or PSYCH 4240: Neuroethology: Neural circuits and Animal Behavior.
Fall 2011. Lectures: M, W, F at 10:10-11:00 AM, Corson Mudd Halls A106 (The Morrison Room); Discussions: Wednesday 9 AM.
4 credits, S-U or letter grades.
Course Instructor:
Carl D. Hopkins
Prerequisites: At least one year of Introductory Biology, plus BIONB 2220, or equivalent, with permission of instructor. Neuroethologists take a comparative and evolutionary approach to the study of the nervous system in the search for neural circuits that explain animal behavior.

BioNB 4200 dis 203. 1 credit (S/U only). Mondays, 4:30-5:30, W364 Seeley Mudd Hall.
PS# 25979 This Journal Club is intended for Biology undergraduates who wish to become familiar with the scientific literature in modern neurobiology and behavior by learning to read, analyze, understand, and present summaries of original research papers. Meetings will be held once per week during the regular academic semester. Participating students will select and prepare at least one oral review of a recent journal article and assist in leading a class discussion on the topic. Faculty will be available to give advice and help with the selection and interpretation of papers. The subject matter will cover a diversity of fields: neuroscience, developmental neurobiology, sensory systems, behavioral genetics, cell and molecular neurobiology, behavioral ecology and ethology.
