  • NEUR 240: Neuroscience I

    3.00 Credits
    Knox College

    This course begins by exploring the neuron and its unique cellular processes; neurophysiology, neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, and neuroplasticity will be covered. We will then attempt to understand selected homeostatic (e.g., eating), cognitive (e.g., sensation/perception, learning/memory), and emotional processes (e.g., reward, stress, and depression) at and across integrated levels of analysis (genetic, physiological, chemical, anatomical, and systems). Prereq: BIOL 120, 130, CHEM 101, 102, or PSYC 100 and permission of the instructor; A 0.5 credit tutorial will be offered concurrently with this course for students who have not completed the lower level biology and chemistry courses.; H.
