Welcome to Cobbers on the Brain! This blog is a compilation of student commentary on the scientific articles discussed each week in my CHEM/NEU 475 – Neurochemistry class at Concordia College. Discussions are held each week regarding the scientific understanding of various neurological diseases, as well as the often muddy social, cultural, and ethical implications of this knowledge. Alzheimer’s Disease, concussion, ALS, addiction, anxiety, bipolar disorder, autism and aging are just a few of the topics covered in the course. We learn a lot, have much to say, but rarely have all the “answers” to our questions! I hope you enjoy…
Welcome!
