9 20: Animal Behavior
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Evolution of behavior, the driver of nervous system evolution, is reviewed emphasizing concepts developed in ethology and sociobiology. Examines foraging and feeding, defensive and aggressive behavior, courtship and reproduction, migration and navigation, and various social activities and communication. Students consider the contributions of inherited patterns and cognitive abilities as well as the roles of various types of plasticity. Both field and laboratory studies are reviewed; human behavior is considered in the context of primate studies.

9 285J: Neural Coding and Perception of Sound
3.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Neural structures and mechanisms mediating the detection, localization, and recognition of sounds. Discussion of how acoustic signals are coded by auditory neurons, the impact of these codes on behavorial performance, and the circuitry and cellular mechanisms underlying signal transformations. Topics include temporal coding, neural maps and feature detectors, learning and plasticity, and feedback control. General principles are conveyed by theme discussions of auditory masking, sound localization, musical pitch, cochlear implants, and auditory scene analysis.

9 31: Cell and Systems Neurophysiology
4.00 Credits
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Surveys the mechanisms supporting plasticity in neurons, focusing on how it contributes to learning in several systems. Examines cellular forms of associative plasticity, including long-term potentiation and depression, metaplasticity, homeostatic plasticity, and depotentiation.
