Students learn about clinical and experimental approaches to human neuropsychology as a basis for understanding brain-behavior relationships in both typical and impaired functioning. Students distinguish the structure and function of the human brain, with particular emphasis on the cerebral cortex; they gain knowledge and understanding of how behavior can be used to infer brain function; and they think critically about key ideas and research findings in neuropsychology. Prerequisites: PSYC 1110 and PSYC 1210 and PSYC 2040 or BIOL 1050 or BIOL 1110 or Instructor's written consent
