NURO 8310 - Advanced Topics in Neuroscience



This is a highly focused course designed to provide students with in-depth discussions of current topics in Neuroscience. The emphasis of the course will be on the presentation and discussion of a recently published paper and closely related background works. Class time will consist of a student-led lecture and discussions, facilitated by Neuroscience faculty. Each weekly presenter will be mentored by a Neuroscience faculty member. That week’s student will present comprehensive background of the topic of discussion, followed by critical evaluation of scientific papers taken from recent primary literature. The presentation will use PowerPoint or equivalent software on a projector, with the student leading the presentation. This course will provide students both with comprehensive knowledge of Neuroscience, and increased experience with reading, presenting and critically analyzing scientific literature.
