That course was administered by the Biology Dept on the main campus and was accredited both undergraduate and graduate students; and 2) the Syllabus for the Mind Brain & Behavior course I started at Harvard College circa 1997 that led, in part, to the Harvard Provost's Award for Educational Innovation. The seminar was initially administered by the Psychology Dept on the main campus then a few years later by MBB when our Initiative became established as a Course of Study with the College Registrar. The current version of the course at the Music School has three "foundation" lectures designed to establish a common fund of knowledge in cognitive neuroscience, auditory neuroscience, psychoacoustics, and music theory (with an emphasis on research methodologies). We could shape the first Quarter of the seminar for 50+ students, though I was hoping to do that separately via the Auditory Neurobiology course, which would cover speech, voice, prosody, and language (and birdsong!) as well as music. Fingers crossed! Gratefully, Mark On Tue, Aug 22, 2017 at 5:54 PM, Stephanie A.

She is also going to talk to her contact in the Development office here. (Rachelle's husband is a cardiologist who has taught to PhySci majors so she understands the added value of physician-student contact). Could you send me your syllabus for the semester-long version of the course that you taught at Harvard?
