[edit] Introduction

Welcome to the Fundamentals of Neuroscience course at Wikiversity! This course provides an advanced secondary-level or early tertiary-level introduction to neuroscience, and is largely modeled after Professor Jim Murray's course in experimental neurobiology at the University of Central Arkansas. A high school-level or basic college-level understanding of biology is strongly recommended as a prerequisite. We hope you will find these materials helpful to you as you pursue your studies.
