The brain is the most important, complex, and mysterious biological structure known to man. The brain underpins all our behaviour and experience, whether it is talking, sleeping, seeing, learning, having sex, taking drugs, or listening to music. To uncover the secrets of the brain means to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be human. In this introductory course, students will become familiar with basic brain function, and its relation to human behaviour and human bodily processes.
