Hormones, Brain, and Behavior

COGS-4700

This course will examine hormone and brain/behavior relationships across the lifespan. Hormones are molecules that are secreted by glands (the majority of which are located outside the brain) and have distal effects on their targets, such as the brain, throughout development. A focus will be on hormones' effects, mechanisms, and brain regions of interest for behavior and cognitive processes, such as perception, learning/memory, social cognition, motivation, and emotion.
