Prequequisites and
Instructor
Consent
This is an
advanced graduate-level course requiring intensive reading of
original research articles. Most
lecturers
will spend little time discussing basic
concepts of cellular, molecular, or systems neuroscience and
pharmacology. So it is
important that students have a fundamental understanding of the
ionic bases of resting and action potentials, neurotransmitters,
their receptors and their actions, as well as the somatic sensory
system.
Lecturers in the course will assume that
students are already comfortable with this material.
Recommended preparation for this
course would ideally include graduate level courses in
cellular/molecular and systems neuroscience. An introductory course in
pharmacology would be beneficial. Solid performance in similar
undergraduate courses may also be considered.
Please contact either co-course director for
more information or permission to register.
