Summary of the lectures of Introduction to Neuroscience, taught at the UvA, based on the book ''Neuroscience: Exploring the Brain', 4th edition, by Bear, Conors & Paradiso.

My lab notes got me a 9.5 on the Intro to Neuroscience exam, as part of the Brain and Cognition Specialization. By studying with my notes, you won't need to consult the lectures. I include screenshots of the slides, plenty of images alongside concepts for better understanding, and many examples that will stick complex concepts to your mind easily. The document covers: 1) Macro-anatomy of the rat brain 2) Micro-anatomy of the rat brain 3) Neurotransmitters in the rat brain 4) Human brain
