课程描述
本课程旨在探讨神经元的特定功能、发育过程中神经元的相互作用和引发行为的神经元集合的组织状态。涵盖的主题包括突变的分析和神经系统发挥功能所需基因的分子分析。本课程尤其侧重于以线虫、果蝇、老鼠和人为实验对象的研究工作。
This course deals with the specific functions of neurons, the interactions of neurons in development, and the organization of neuronal ensembles to produce behavior. Topics covered include the analysis of mutations, and molecular analysis of the genes required for nervous system function. In particular, this course focuses on research work done with nematodes, fruit flies, mice, and humans.
