·       P456: Reproductive Neuroscience: senior-level undergraduate and graduate level course aimed at providing the basis for understanding how hormones shape neuronal development and reproductive function throughout the lifespan.  Fall 2008, 2010 Spring 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 Indiana University

·       P357: Science of Sexuality-upper level course aimed at critically evaluating research on human sexuality.  This is a project-based course in which each student develops an independent topic and reports on the Psychological, Social, and Biological aspects of that topic culminating in a final article on how each of these branches of science and society drive both experimental designs and outcomes. Summer 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016

·       N501:Human Neuroanatomy: This course a traditional anatomy course using human brains harvested from the medical school cadavers each year.  These brains are then scanned using the in-house MRI creating an MRI data set that is used for learning anatomical structures in this format as well as use in locating structures during in-class dissections of these brains.  Spring 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014

·       N650: Neuroscience Colloquium series Fall 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and Spring 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014.  This course is the required seminar series for all Program in Neuroscience graduate students.  Schedule and coordinate weekly seminar talks for the Program in Neuroscience graduate program.  I coordinate both the internal speakers (students and faculty) and external (~50% of the talks are from outside speakers).  All graduate students give a pre-SFN poster session the week before SFN each year.  In the Spring students have multiple weeks of “data blitz” type talks incorporated into external speaker series to insure that all students have an opportunity to share their work.
