PSYC 496, Neuroscience of Eating and Drinking (section NL3 – undergraduate section)
Eating and drinking are fundamental not only to survival but also to pleasure and happiness. Have you ever wondered why you keep eating when you are already full? Do you know how eating and drinking behaviors are strongly affected by our surroundings? Would you like to learn how taste and smell mediate eating and drinking? This course will critically probe and review the current understanding of neural mechanisms underlying normal and aberrant ingestive behaviors. *Strongly Recommended that students take Psyc 210 as a pre-requisite*
Wednesday and Friday, 1:00 – 2:50 pm
