Prerequisites: C or better in BIOL 1202 , BIOL 1201 ,   A study of the fundamental principles of the neuron and a general description of the nervous system.

This foundation will be used to explore what is known about higher cognitive processing such as learning, memory, and language; the neural mechanisms of sleep, dreaming, emotion, and addiction; and what happens in the brain when things go wrong.
