Redwood Theoretical Neuroscience Videos Online
Last year, the Redwood Center for Theoretical Neuroscience moved from the Redwood Neuroscience Institute in Meno Park to the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute at Berkeley. In October they held a symposium with several interesting speakers presenting on various topics within Theoretical Neuroscience.
The videos are now online for your perusal, or you can buy a DVD of the whole symposium for a paltry $5.
