NRSC 4032 - Neurobiology of Learning and Memory
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2024 / Fall 2025
Provides a comprehensive treatment of how the brain acquires, stores, and retrieves memories. To do this we will consider (a) the methods used to address these issues, (b) what we know about how brain systems are organized to support memories of different types,and (c) the synaptic mechanisms that are involved. Same as NRSC 5032.
