BioNB330 - Introduction to Computational Neuroscience Lab

The lab for this class consists of a series of computer excercises designed specifically to accompany the material presented in class and to deepen the students' understanding of these materials.

The labs are coordinated with the lectures. The TA will be available in the computer teaching lab on Monday mornings (10 am - noon), Comstock Hall B160).
