麻省理工学院“开放式课程网页” | 脑与认知科学 | 9.95-A 2003一月(自由活动月)课程：神经科学的研究专题

此一课程提供学生在神经科学领域中各种不同研究取向的概观。经由各领域中首屈一指的教授呈现他们的研究与未来方向，让学生对其领域以及未来的发展有所概念，并将请各教授解释如何介入所被提出尚待解决的主要问题。课堂讲稿上有每位教授演讲的大纲与概要；另外，在相关资源区针对各专题附有详尽的连结。

This survey course is designed to give students an overview of several different research areas in the field of neuroscience. Professors who are leaders in their fields present their research and future directions, to give the students a sense of what the field is and where it is going. The main questions yet to be answered will be raised, and each professor will explain how they are tackling these questions. The lecture notes give an outline and overview of each professor's presentation. The related resources provide areas for further exploration of the topics.
