Basics in Functional Neurobiology

These pages contain the course material for a basic course in neurobiology. We mostly cover the basics of neurophysiology: How neurons communicate and how they generate the signals they use to communicate.

The course is held as a weekly lecture.

Time: Thursday 18:00 to 19:00.

Location: IIIS Building, seminar room 1st floor.

I strongly encourage you to bring questions to the lectures – these may rise from what you are hearing, reading (papers, book chapters…) or from your experiments ……
