This web site is a resource to help educators, scientists, and parents
who need quick access to materials that will entertain, amaze, and inform
the public (and those of us "outside of our area") about the many wonders
of the brain and nervous system. The topics range from molecules to behavior
and cover resources important to both basic and applied research. We link
you to sites that keep you current on breaking news, and those that help
you understand the science behind the news. To maximize the efficiency
of your search, we try to link directly to the most relevant pages within
larger domains. Use the BACK button on your browser to return to this resource

This year we are really thrilled that so many new sites have emerged to
bring neuroscience and technology to kids - whose brains are in a most
remarkable stage of development. Even better, these sites are great
for adults too! Because we all learn best when the process is active,
there are links throughout this guide to lots of laboratories, activities,
and explorations.
If you know of a resource that should be considered for this site, please
drop a quick (or lengthy) note with your suggestions and comments to Deborah
Colbern, Ph.D. at BEEMNET. We would also appreciate your evaluation
of sites, especially in terms of their appropriateness for persons of various
abilities and age groups. Please note this obligatory disclaimer, i.e.,
