PSYC 7302 - Neurobiology of Learning and Memory

This seminar will examine the neural basis of learning and memory. Study of brain systems that mediate different types of learning and memory as well as the cellular and molecular mechansims that allow these systems to acquire and store information. Topics will include memory consolidation, neural plasticity, cellular competition for memory storage, the role of neurogenesis in learning and memory and mechaisms of retention and forgetting.
