Introduction to Neuroscience
NEUR 120 - Stewart, Bob
An introduction to neuroscience emphasizing the molecular organization, chemistry, and physiology of the neuron; how neurons are organized into functional circuits; and how these functional circuits process information and control both normal and abnormal behavior.
Introduction to Neuroscience Workshop
NEUR 121 - Stewart, Bob
Training in the basic fundamental skills needed tor a career in the neurosciences. Prospective majors 1) learn fundamental oral presentation skills critically needed for a career in the biosciences; 2) learn to lead a discussion with an emphasis on critical analysis of primary research articles; 3) acquire a conceptual toolbox and theoretical understanding of current neuroscience techniques; 4) develop a digital portfolio of their academic work and research; and 5) learn about current neuroscience lab research opportunities at W&L.
