Animal training is the act of teaching an animal specific responses to conditions/stimuli. Training can be for companionship, detection, protection, or entertainment. The type of training a specific animal recieves varies depending on the training goal (i.e., a seeing eye dog will be trained differently than a dog on a police force).
Learning Objectives: 1. Delineate the goals of studies of brain, computation and behavior and how they can be integrated. 2. Describe how neuromodulators such as oxytocin transform circuits...
