Biology & Disorders of Learning & Memory
Course - Cold Spring Harbor, NY, United States
This lecture course will provide an introduction to cellular, molecular and systems approaches to learning and memory. It is suited for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in molecular biology, neurobiology, and psychology as well as research workers who are interested in an introduction to this field. The course will cover topics ranging from behavioral considerations of learning and memory to gene regulation in the nervous system. The lectures will provide an intensive coverage of modern behavioral studies of learning and memory, the cell and molecular biology of neuronal plasticity, cellular and molecular mechanisms of simple forms of learning and memory and systems approaches to learning in vertebrates and humans. Lectures will be complemented by exercises in which students work in small groups with lecturers to discuss topical issues in learning and memory, to evaluate recent studies and to identify and formulate new research questions and approaches. The course is thus designed not only to introduce students to the field of learning and memory, but also to provide an intellectual framework upon which future studies can be built.
