Favorite Class

My favorite class so far has been Behavioral Neuroscience! I really enjoyed learning about the physiological components involved in our everyday behaviors. We talked about really fascinating topics by reading journal articles such as how aromatherapy can affect EEG patterns and the differences in brain morphology of high-endurance athletes. We also got to work on a group project where I analyzed short-term memory and retrieval data from a mock experiment.
