5 courses with the subject SBN, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
SBN 505Seminar in Social and Behavioral Neuroscience3
/Maximum of 12 Each section of this course explores an important topical area within contemporary social and behavioral neuroscience, exploring pertinent concepts, theories, and empirical findings. Topics explored may include the neuroscience underpinnings of social, personality, and emotional development; the neuroscience of aging and memory; and social and affective neuroscience. The intention of this course is to lay a foundation so that students may critically read and conduct research in the topical area, with an emphasis on how the topic can be examined at different levels of analysis, and how integrating information across levels of analysis furthers advancement in the field. Levels of analysis include neurochemical and cellular processes, neural networks and systems, behavioral manifestation, and dynamic feedback from the environmental context. The course will emphasize class participation and provide multiple opportunities to examine related topics in written and spoken form

SBN 508Methods in Social and Behavioral Neuroscience3
/Maximum of 12 Different sections of SBN 508 will explore important topical areas in the broader domain of research design, experimental and measurement techniques, and data analytic methods that are common to Social and Behavioral Neuroscience or are newly developed, cutting edge methods in the field. Courses will include an examination of (a) the biological process being measured (e.g. what type of neural activity is and is not captured in fMRI), (b) the foundational principles of the experimental and/ or measurement technique, (c) the analytical approaches pertinent to the type of data being generated, and (d) methodological issues of particular relevance to the experimental technique and/or design being used. The intent of SBN 508 is to provide students with a strong foundation in research design, procedures,measurement, and data analytic approaches that students can carry forward and use in research projects in Social and Behavioral Neuroscience. SBN 508 will emphasize class participation and provide multiple opportunities to examine related topics in written and spoken form. Courses will also provide students with the opportunity to work with the relevant data types to provide an immersive experience in design and analysis. We anticipate that SBN 508 course sections will be continually revised and updated to reflect new and innovative experimental, measurement, and data analytical techniques that continually appear in the scientific literature.
