All people are directly or indirectly impacted by psychiatric disorders. It is now clear that virtually all psychiatric disorders have their basis in the brain. This course will explore the neurobiology of psychiatric disorders. We will focus particularly on clinical studies examining brain function in people with psychiatric disorders and animal models aiming to better understand these disorders. Students are expected to have a strong background in neuroscience prior to entering this course.
