Question 1

What will I learn in Psychobiology?

Accepted Answer

Psychobiology is the subarea of psychology that takes a biological approach to understanding behavior.  Psychobiologists study the biological events – genetics, neural, endocrine - that underlie each and every one of our thoughts, feelings and actions.  Research in this area focuses on the relationship between brain and behavior but often extends to physiological processes elsewhere in the body (e.g. stomach, glands).  This course will explore what is currently known about the biological basis of emotional responses, mental illness, memory, states of consciousness, sensory perception, thought and language and several neurological disorders.  Students will also participate in hands-on labs and dissections to further explore the biology of behavior.  ( Prerequisites:  SC430C/H Biology, SC440C/H Chemistry,  and current science teacher’s recommendation) This course begins with an overview of basic nutrition to include types of nutrients, separating foods into food groups and building a healthy plate. We discuss the importance of a balanced diet, different diet trends, nutrition throughout the lifecycle and nutrition around the world. This class uses hands-on activities and labs to relate course material to real life applications to teach students how to live a healthy lifestyle through high school and beyond.
