Rationale
Social interactions are a staple of daily living- something that we all experience and are vital to our well-being.

This course aims to help us understand the neurobiological basis for our social interaction. This course will emphasize previous and current research in the field and draw students to develop their own thoughts and proposals related to social neuroscience.
