Course Description
The Basics of Neurophysiology
See inside your own head as we examine the brain and explain how it works in this free online neurophysiology course. This free online course peers inside your head to examine the human brain, the most complicated organ we know. Some scientists say that we know more about the universe than the brain and neurophysiology seeks to change that. We explain how the brain lets neurons exchange information and how researchers can record and interpret brain activity. This course links the laboratory to the world beyond it as we investigate the origins of thought.
