PSY 163AA: NEURAL SPATIAL COG.
University of California, Santa Barbara
Across the animal kingdom, intelligent behavior requires long term storage of the structure of the spatial environment to enable efficient navigation between goal locations. Given this, it is perhaps unsurprising that the bra in evolved systems for generating, storing, and using spatial information. This course will examine the neural circuits that mediate spatial cognition and navigation, with strong focus on neurophysiology and behavior. Special emphasis is placed on comparisons of navigation between species and conside ration of the overlapping nature of spatial and episodic memory processing.
