  1. Cellular Basis of Learning and Memory BIPN 148 Spring 2005 March 28-May 27 This course will examine the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie learning and memory. Topics covered will include animal models of learning, brain structures involved in learning, neurotransmitter systems and receptors involved in learning and synaptic plasticity, and biochemical mechanisms of synaptic plasticity. A solid background in cell and molecular biology is expected. Prerequisites: BILD 1; BILD 2; BIBC 100 (may be taken concurrently); BIPN140 highly recommended. If you are on the waitlist, you should check with the Biology undergraduate affairs office to see if you can add the class.
