Neurons Course
This Neurons Fundamentals Course provides biological science professionals with a clear, mechanism-based understanding of neuronal excitability, signaling, and network integration. Starting from neuron structure, membrane potentials, and action potentials, it covers saltatory conduction, synaptic transmission with key neurotransmitters, dendritic integration, inhibitory control, glial roles, and plasticity. Learners gain skills to interpret neuroscience data and design experiments effectively.
