本課程是學習細胞神經生物學的基礎科學。主要內容重點關注神經元的結構，其中包括易興奮細胞的結構與生物物理性質、突觸傳遞、神經化學、神經發育以及簡單系統與視覺系統資訊的整合。同時涉及了不同種類的神經突觸，從化學突觸到電突觸，即我們所知的烏賊巨大軸突中的縫隙連接。作業的設計目的是為了使初學者理解離子梯度是神經元傳遞的主動力源。

This course is the foundation for the study of cellular neurobiology. The primary material focuses on the structure of neurons, including the biophysical properties of excitable cells, synaptic transmission, neurochemistry, neurodevelopment, and integration of information in simple systems and the visual system. The different types of synapses are also covered, from chemical synapses to electrical synapses, known as gap junctions, in the squid giant axon. The problem sets are designed to ground students in the understanding that ionic gradients are the primary power source of neuronal transmission.
