NRSC-5100 (2-5) Introduction to Neuroscience I

Provides an intensive introduction to the principles of neuroscience, initially covering the detailed neuroanatomy of human forebrain, hindbrain, and spinal cord. This is followed by neurophysiology with a concentration on the electrophysiology of neural systems. The basics of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology with a concentration on the electrophysiology are then applied to an examination of the structure and function of visual, auditory, and sensorimotor systems in animal and man. Recommended requisite, restricted to Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program or instructor consent required. Requisites: Restricted to graduate students only.
