PLEASE NOTE: A new exam period for this course will take place from September 1-28, 2015. Exam period announcements will be made on www.mcb80x.org. This course and the exam are NOT hosted on the edX platform, but can be found at www.fundamentalsofneuroscience.org or www.mcb80x.org. An edX certificate will be awarded after successful completion of a final exam during an exam period. If you want a certificate for this course, you MUST register for the course through EdX, even though we keep all of our material open and accessible for self-paced study on www.fundamentalsofneuroscience.org or www.mcb80x.org.

In this second module (MCB80x.2) we will explore how neurons communicate with each other.  We will investigate the collective behavior of neurons in small circuits and ways in which signals between neurons are modulated.

Each lesson will be media and content rich and will challenge you to master material with interactive segments that depend on your feedback to move forward in the lesson. You will be able to use virtual labs simulating neurons and circuitry to test your understanding of the course material. Lessons will also be filled with beautiful animations, exploring the richness and complexity of the brain. Documentaries focusing on cutting-edge topics in neuroscience will take you inside labs, hospitals and research institutions around Harvard, MIT and Boston, and quiz banks will allow you to test your knowledge on your own time.

Our forums will provide you with a place to meet other students around the world.  You can learn from each other as well as discuss questions with members of our team during office hours, which will be held every Wednesday.

• Lesson 1: The Synapse 
• Lesson 2: Excitation & Inhibition 
• Lesson 3: Small Circuits 
• Lesson 4: Neuromodulation
• Lesson 5: Potentiation & Depression 

HarvardX pursues the science of learning. By registering as an online learner in an HX course, you will also participate in research about learning. Read our research statement to learn more.
