    Study Notes

    • The course is called Brain & Behaviour (PSYC11212) and is led by Dr. Gorana Pobric.
    • The course consists of lecture and seminar sessions, with 3 mini quizzes and an exam for assessment.
    • The syllabus covers topics such as neurophysiology, stress, emotion, autism, and substance abuse.
    • The intended learning outcomes include identifying brain structures, understanding cognition and behavior, and applying knowledge to interpret research findings and daily situations.
    • The brain is the most complex living organ on earth and understanding its function can lead to improvements in various aspects of daily life.
    • Cognitive and behavioral neuroscience provide insight into areas of cognition that were difficult to address without neuroimaging techniques.
    • The nervous system consists of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (cranial and spinal nerves).
    • The brain is protected by the skull and encased in cerebrospinal fluid.
    • The cerebral cortex is a thin, wrinkled layer of tissue covering the brain that consists of two hemispheres and lobes.
    • The limbic system is a set of structures involved in learning, memory, and emotion, while the basal ganglia is involved in processing information for motor movement.
    • The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS).
    • The CNS consists of the brain and spinal cord.
    • The brain has three main parts: forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain.
    • The forebrain is responsible for higher cognitive functions, the midbrain for sensory processing, and the hindbrain for basic life functions.
    • The spinal cord communicates with the sense organs and muscles below the head.
    • The PNS is located outside of the skull and spine and has two parts: the somatic and autonomic nervous systems.
    • The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movement and sensory information.
    • The autonomic nervous system controls the body's vegetative functions and is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions.
    • The sympathetic division prepares the body for energy expenditure, while the parasympathetic division relaxes the body.
    • All nerves in the autonomic nervous system are efferent.
