  • ZOO 4280: Intro Neuroscience

    3.00 Credits
    University of Wyoming

    Examines the basic electrical properties of neurons and from there identifies determinants of brain development, how neuronal "circuits" are formed and how these neuronal systems enable the processing of sensory information, coordinated movement, adaptation to the environment, and other complex functions (e.g. sleep, sex). Prerequisite: BIOL 2020.

  • ZOO 4295: Neurodevelopment

    3.00 Credits
    University of Wyoming

    Through lecture and discussion of research articles, students learn mechanisms of nervous system development, from the birth and differentiation of neurons to the formation of synapses and circuits. Focus is on classical experiments done in vertebrates (Xenopus tadpole, chick, zebrafish, and mouse) and invertebrates (nematode and drosophila). Prerequisite: ZOO 4280, or graduate standing.
