iTunes has a bunch of Introduction to Neuroscience courses available, too. The lecturers recorded themselves and put themselves on iTunes; they're modern-day saints as far as I'm concerned.

Very interesting, exactly what I've been looking for.
The font in the document is very irritating; the t's are to small, disrupting my fast reading. Does anyone else have this font problem in this document?

Any parents out there--(or if you have some kids you correspond with as a mentor or family member) --send them this link with games to teach neuroscience for kids! (very cool site!)
