Loving neuroscience comes from understanding.
Hello! Welcome to my blog about (you guessed it) neuroscience. I am a current graduate student in neuroscience, working on my PhD at Yale. I've noticed that though people seem interested in how the brain works, it's an easy thing to be mystified about due to the lack of basic knowledge around. In this blog, I'll try to provide background information and expand upon that into some of the interesting things happening in the field of neuroscience! Enjoy!
