Neurology

Neurology, neuroanatomy and neurophysiology teaching has changed in Cambridge over recent years, now the majority is taught in the 2nd year of pre-clinical studies, making the mountain of information in 2nd year even higher to climb. The topic is vast and varied, and the notes here by no means do it justice, but may still be useful.

There used to be more resources on here, I’ve taken them down now given so much time has passed since I did this part of the course. E-mail me if you are interested in more resources.
