Neuroscience is the study of the brain and how it affects our interactions with the world around us. Students take a year-long course in neuroscience by learning brain anatomy, brain function and disorders and reserach methods.
Students require dissection lab to have a deeper understanding of the brain anatomy and how certain neurological disorders develop. Sheep brains are very similar to human brains, are relatively accessible and serve as comparison models. Dissection activities create rich discussion, exploration and growth in student learning. Thus, sheep brains, dissection tools and pans are needed for this course.
