  • BIOL 120: Cell and Molecular Neurobiology

    4.00 Credits
    Drew University

    The structure and function of neurons, the basic building blocks of the nervous system, are investigated. The course builds to an understanding of how neuronal cell function determines higher brain processes, such as sensation and memory. The laboratory employs living neurons' growth in culture to explore topics such as growth of neurites, cell signaling pathways, and neural degeneration. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 7, 9, and 22; CHEM 7. Offered annually.

  • BIOL 121: Systems Neurobiology

    4.00 Credits
    Drew University

    The neurons of the nervous system are organized into systems that can be defined on the basis of function, anatomy or neurochemistry. This course explores the development of these systems, coordination of the activity within each system, and clinical disorders arising from malfunctions. The laboratory uses current neuroanatomical, pharmacological and neurochemical techniques to explore structure and function. Meets: Three hours class, three hours laboratory. Prerequisite: BIOL 9, BIOL 22 and CHEM 7. Offered annually.

  • BIOL 124: Neurobiology of Learning and Memory

    2.00 Credits
    Drew University

    The study of neurobiological mechanisms underlying learning and memory. Current theories of cognition are examined from a developmental, molecular, cellular and systems approach. Specific intracellular changes observed in neurons from both invertebrate and vertebrate models of learning and memory are evaluated. Anatomical correlates of thought are investigated as well as neuro-pharmacological approaches to the study of learning and memory. Meets: Two hours class. Prerequisite: BIOL 2 or 22. Offered annually. Same as: NEURO 124.

  • BIOL 127: Diseases of the Brain

    4.00 Credits
    Drew University

    An in-depth study of neurologic diseases with a particular emphasis on Alzheimer's disease. Case studies of affected patients are used to understand the relationship between the physical changes and the behavioral impairments in these diseases. Biological mechanisms to explain the pathological and clinical manifestations of the diseases are investigated. Current therapies and ongoing scientific research into novel treatments are evaluated. Meets: Three hours class, one hour supplemental work. Prerequisite: BIOL 2 or 22. Offered annually.
