About the Course

The Graduate Program in Neuroscience offers a three-week laboratory course in basic neurobiology on the campus of the Lake Itasca Forestry and Biological Station in northern Minnesota for selected undergraduate students from universities around the country. Each of the three weeks covers a separate subject and is taught by a separate team of faculty from the University of Minnesota. Each part of the course provides didactic instruction in some area of basic neurobiology along with opportunities for independent investigation through the formulation and completion of weekly projects. The setting for the course, in a pine forest on the shores of Lake Itasca, provides an atmosphere for uninterrupted study and close interaction between faculty and students. The laboratory building contains seven fully equipped stations with a capacity for 14 students.
