In this course, students will develop an understanding of neurobiology at several levels, from the physiology of individual neurons, through the functioning of neural circuits, and finally to the behavior of neural systems such as vision, motion, and...

Neuronal connections strengthen and weaken with learning, memory, or other events; a phenomenon called synaptic plasticity. In this course, we explore the underlying biological, biophysical and biochemical changes responsible for plasticity. This...
