BIOL 341
Neurobiology

2017-Ongoing

The Neurobiology course is designed for 3rd or 4th year students interested in advanced studies of the structure and function of the vertebrate nervous system.  Where possible, it will use mammalian and non-mammalian models to illustrate general principles of nervous system function.   Some classic studies using invertebrate animals will also be examined.  The focus is about how the nervous system of diverse animals is organized and adapted to perform special behaviours.

BIOL 350
