Introduction to Neuroscience

This class reminded me a lot of my AP Biology class in high school. Many of the concepts taught were the same so the class actually came relatively easily to me. There were still some topics that were new to me and took a little more time to understand. Unfortunately, this class was a new class for Longwood and therefore, new for the professor. The material was very rough and not as refined as other classes I have taken. Because of this, there was a lot more material thrown at you at once than there should have been.

The artifact below is a project about the Insula, a part of the brain. I chose this part of the brain for this particular assignment because my sister was going through some procedures to try and fix her headaches. The current procedure she was receiving involved the insula, so I chose it for my project because I could add a personal aspect to the project.
