Description:
Developmental behavioral neuroscience is an emerging interdisciplinary field with diverse contributions from the behavioral and biological science. This core course places the study of development in a biological context that includes evolution, genetics, physiology, anatomy, cells, and molecules. The focus is on major concepts and methods used to explain development of brain and behavior, particularly during early stages. Enduring controversies and modern efforts to resolve them will be considered. The course is organized to represent major areas of contemporary research, with attention to both fundamental processes and functionally defined, integrative behavioral systems.
