Neuroscience Journal
Neuroscience is the study of the nervous system and its components. Neuroscientists may examine the nervous systems of humans and higher animals as well as simple multicellular nervous systems, or investigate nervous phenomenon at the cellular, organelle, or molecular level. In the twentieth century, neuroscience was greatly advanced by Wilder Penfield, who stimulated nerves in the brains of conscious patients to obtain a rudimentary functional map of the brain.
