PSY 573 - Neuropsychopharmacology


3 credit(s)
Neuropsychopharmacology explores the molecular mechanisms of action of drugs that modify mood and behavior, such as the opiates, tranquilizers, and antidepressants. Emphasis is placed on the chemistry of the nerve cell and the techniques used to evaluate drug-induced changes in those cells. As time permits, the neurochemical basis for selected disease states, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and schizophrenia, will be discussed. It is recommended that participants in this class have previous knowledge of physiological psychology.
Prerequisite(s): Permission of instructor.
