BIOL086L KS - Hormones and Behavior

This course is intended for non-science majors to examine the reciprocal ways that hormones regulate behavior and behavior regulates hormones in human and non-human animals. To do this, we will focus on interactions among hormones, the nervous system, animal behavior, and the environment. Topics in class and the laboratory can include sex determination and differentiation, biological rhythms, reproductive behavior, parenting, social interactions, stress, environmental endocrine disruptors, and affective disorders.
