A neuroscientist trying to figure out how the brain does it all. I use MRI and data science methods to study neurophysiology and structure. Currently leading a team of undergraduates in a novel study.

Auditory System
Draw the inputs of the auditory system. Include the structures found in your learning objectives.
Refer to Young, figure 12-4
Vestibular System
Draw circuit for the vestibulospinal reflex. Include all the structures found in your learning objectives.
Refer to Young, figure 13-1.
Vestibular System
Draw circuit for the vestibulo-ocular reflex. Include all the structures found in your learning objectives.
Refer to Young, figure 13-3.
Visual System
Draw a rough diagram of the visual pathways. Include all of the structures listed in your learning objectives.
Refer to Young, figure 14-5.
Gustatory System
