PSY 162 - NEUROETHOLOGY
This course describes the studies of different animal models, ranging from insects and amphibians to birds and mammals, to learn about their specialized behaviors and the neural circuitries that govern them. The goal of this classic branch of behavioral neuroscience is to understand how the nervous system encodes relevant natural stimuli to trigger an appropriate evolutionarily-robust behavioral response in order to uncover fundamental principles of the nervous system.
