Course Description

Genetics and genomics are central to contemporary Neuroscience. Genetics is the study of genes, the molecular mechanisms of gene action, genetic variations in health and disease, and inheritance. Genes contain the information needed to specify physical and behavioral traits and provide the basis of inheritance for all life forms, from bacteria to humans. Genomics is the study of all genes of an organism (the genome) and the interactions of genes with each other and with the organism's environment.
