FYSP 002 - Neuroscience and Pop CultureFC NSMA WINT
4 credits
Do you want to know whether or not humans have any new neurons after age 13, or if lying changes your brain? This seminar will explore neuroscience through news, movies, books, and scientific journal articles. As you discuss interesting media, you will apply scientific reasoning and strengthen your critical analysis skills. This course will explore how a breadth of neuroscience concepts (brain anatomy, functions of neurons, learning and memory, etc.) are represented in pop culture. Additionally, we will discuss current ethical issues within the neuroscience community, including the reproducibility crisis and use of animals in research.
