Neuroscience

Girls-Only & ​All-Genders Course;
Prerequisite - Successful completion of one year of high school laboratory science or permission from the administration;
​Full-Year Course

In this project-based course, students learn the structure of the brain and how the brain senses, thinks, behaves, and creates memories for learning and language. We explore brain diseases, disorders, imaging techniques, treatments, and how the environment impacts the brain. Armed with this solid foundation in neuroscience, students spend the second semester learning to think like doctors. Students engage in group and individual research projects and seminar-style problem solving, developing the ability to find answers to questions that may not be addressed specifically in the course. They review actual cases in the neuroscience field and follow the doctrine of ethical analysis with patients. Students are guided through a self-designed, long-term research project. This course is designed for students who are considering college majors in a medical or health-related field.
