More information

 

This exciting online programme provides a detailed overview of human brain anatomy presented in a very clear and accessible way. It is unlike traditional neuroanatomy courses, emphasising understanding over rote learning.


The comprehensive programme gives a firm grasp of the three-dimensional structure of the brain with clinical and functional integration, which students find enjoyable - and a powerful aid to long-term recall.
