VERSIONE ITALIANA

 

The Links reported in this section of SIF site are a useful collection on  the neuroscience field.

This is a Web page useful for students and experts in this area of study: this neurolinks collection includes various typology sites, like the essential human encephalus atlas, neuroscience societies supplying various information services.

The following is the best you can found after careful research on the neuroWeb.

 

An Update on GABAA Receptors This site offers a brief overview on GABA receptors, providing a wide set of links to catch info on related topics, especially pharmacological ones, such as benzodiazepines, sedatives, anticonvulsants, alcohol, and from there many others, browse it!
Benzodiazepine Addiction, Withdrawal & Recovery All you need to know on benzodiazepine abuse, dependence, withdrawal syndrome is here. You will also find links to expert doctors, recent papers on these topics, stories of dependence, detailed drug lists.
Cenedella This site offers a general insight of epilepsy: the historical origin, the different neuropathological models, the mechanisms which give rise to this pathology also in genetic terms. 
Centre of the Neural Basis of Cognition This section of the "Centre of the Neural Basis of Cognition" contains a large number of links to journals, publisher and online bibliography searches.

Drugs, Brains & Behavior "Drugs Brains and Behavior" is a real electronic book. Being a simple text with many figures and easy to consulte, it is primarily addressed to students and it may be helpful in studying neuropharmacology.
Federation of European Neuroscience Societies All national neuroscience societies are members of FENS: FENS organises biannual European meetings attracting many neuroscientist's interest, schools, courses and workshops  to advance research and education in the neurosciences.
International Brain Research Organization The "International brain research organization" web-site contains numerous links to the most important neuroscience journals and portals. Moreover this site offers useful advices for young scientists in the "map & compass" section.
National Institute of Neurological Disorder and Stroke The National Institute of Neurological Disorder and Stroke web site offers a complete list of clinic research in neurological disease field, numerous links to research groups and a complete list of news. In spite of the specialist contain this site is easy-going and clear.
Neauroanatomy Neuropathology Neuroscience Neurology This is a very rich site of neuroanatomy and neuropathology. This site contains many information about the story of biology, quiz, documents, software, society…

NeuroGuide Neuroguide is a very useful index of neuroscience available on the Internet. In this site you can find different sections as neurobiology, neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, psychology, cognitive science sites and informations on human neurological diseases.
Neuroscion This web-site is an online resource developed by neuroscientists for neuroscientists. On Neuroscion you can find a convenient access point to more than 60 core neuroscience journals from Elsevier Science. Moreover this site offers a free membership that allows you to get free full-text articles.
The National Society of Epilepsy The National Society of Epilepsy offers several tools to people interested or involved in this pathology: it gives deals with medical staff such as clinics, specialists, MRI and EEG units, explains about some of the different areas of work in the epilepsy research program, suggests rehabilitation services.
The Whole Brain Atlas

This web-site offers a complete brain atlas divided in five categories:

Normal brain; cerebrovascular disease; neoplastic disease; degenerative disease; inflammatory or infectious disease.

Synaptic Transmission Multimedia Neuroscience Education is a project funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) to improve and wide promote the complex interdisciplinary field of "teaching neuroscience", taking advantage of digital technology. This site offers an overview on synaptic transmission. Non-expert people can find here some basic information on this process.
