Structured Research Experience in Behavioral Neuroscience

Catalog description

This course is part of a year-long focused research experience for junior- and senior-level undergraduates. This course teaches students to engage with, interpret, and present findings from behavioral neuroscience experiments. Students will learn to interpret empirical literature related to a focused problem in behavioral neuroscience, develop a testable hypothesis based on that literature, design an ethical study to test the hypothesis, and learn the skills necessary to conduct the proposed research.
