Selected current topics in molecular biology literature will be critically analyzed. Back to Top . Neurobiology of Disease. Advanced course on the higher neural functions of the nervous system and neurological diseases resulting from disruption of these functions. An emphasis is placed on the physiology of the nervous system and neural dysfunction caused by inherited and acquired diseases.
Topics range from motor control and neuromuscular diseases to high cognitive function and dementia.
Back to Top . The principles of neural development. Special emphasis is placed on the formation of neural connections and on trophic influences which underlie neural and behavioral plasticity during the life cycle. Back to Top . Molecular Basis of Human Genetic Disease.
