Neuroscience journal club
Meetings are on Tuesdays at 12:00 in Clapp 405. Bring your lunch!
Discussions revolve around a roundtable discussion of the material and especially its broader meaning in the context of how the brain works. The only multimedia tool available is a whiteboard. Topics span from neural circuits to behavior.
