This is my notes of Fundamentals of Neuroscience (3 courses) offered by the Harvard University through edX
Fundamentals of Neuroscience is a Xseries program offered by the Harvard University through edX. Prof. David Cox is the course instructor. This course is based on the introductory Neurobiology course taught at Harvard. The program covers signal transduction, sensation, perception and the physiology of the brain.The program covers 3 courses:
- Fundamentals of Neuroscience, Part 1: The Electrical Properties of the Neuron
- Fundamentals of Neuroscience, Part 2: Neurons and Networks
- Fundamentals of Neuroscience, Part 3: The Brain
- Part-1 notes
- Part-2 notes
- Part-3 notes
- Certificate of completion Part-1
- Certificate of completion Part-2
- Certificate of completion Part-3
My notes of Computational Neuroscience course offered by the University of Washington through Coursera
Computational Neuroscience course is offered by the University of Washigton through Coursera. The course instructors are Prof. Rajesh P. N. Rao and Prof. Adrienne Fairhall.
The course is an introduction to basic computational methods for understanding nervous system. The recommended textbook for the course is Theoretical Neuroscience: Computational and Mathematical Modeling of Neural Systems by Laurence F. Abbott and Peter Dayan. I have uploaded my python solutions to exercise of chapter 1 of this text book, you can find it here.
Medical Neuroscience course is offered by the Duke University through Coursera. [ ---In progess---]
The course instructor is Prof. Leonard E. White. The course covers Neuroanatomy, Neural Signalling, Sensory Systems, Movement and Motor Control, Brain Development, and Cognition. This is very intensive course. I literally have spent 100s of hours on this course (including recommended text book study). I have to say, this is my favourite and difficult course that I have taken so far.
Usefull resources for the course:
- Supporting webpage of the course (You can find all the helpful resources here)
- Visulizing the brain/virtual lab
- Textbook resources - I highly recoomend you to go over animations. It helps a lot in understanding.
- Quiz - text book chapterwise
Note: I will be uploading the remaining notes in the days to come.
