PSYC 3530U – Developmental Neuroscience

This course focuses on the development of brain structure/function, and the ways in which that development helps support human social, emotional and cognitive development. Topics may include the stages of brain development, the role of experience versus innate biological predisposition, the process of developmental neuroplasticity and the functional specialization of domain specific mechanisms. A variety of neuroscientific methods will be surveyed (e.g. MRI, fMRI, EEG, MEG, NIRS), and the way in which these methods can help offer insights into issues of healthy and abnormal brain development will be discussed.
