      • Action Potential - Forum operated by neuroscience editors at the journal, Nature.
      • The scicurious brain - Maintained by [Scientific American](https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/), this blog typically covers one research paper in a single entry.

    • MOOCs

      • Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) - based distance learning programs that are designed for the participation of large numbers of geographically dispersed students.
      • The Fundamentals of Neuroscience | Harvard & edX - Serves an introductory survery of topics in neuroscience and has no specific prerequisites, though some prior exposure to biology and/or chemistry can be helpful.
      • Computational Neuroscience | Coursera - Provides an introduction to basic computational methods for understanding what nervous systems do and for determining how they function.
      • Medical Neuroscience - Explores the functional organization and neurophysiology of the human central nervous system, while providing a neurobiological framework for understanding human behavior.
