    Neighborhood Neuroscience (version 0) is a practical, skeptical, future-oriented, technology-focused, ~short introduction to the topic of biological psychology. It includes readings from the textbook "Foundations of Biological Psychology", forthcoming with Cambridge University Press. It also includes exam review games, student presentations, a dramatic skit set inside the brain that nobody asked for, freely given exam questions & answers, on-air brain-stimulation w/o ethics board approval, obligatory banter, incidental music, and all the production quality that you should expect when a budget-less early-career academic is solely responsible. That’s me, Andrew Neff, Visiting Professor at Emory University, writer of this textbook and creator of this podcast, which is made possible by my extraordinary student assistants Nicklas Gose, Venezia Roshko, and Amanda Sotolongo. In this podcast, there are no grades, no essays, and no exams, only attendance points. And there are no credits awarded, no letters of recommendation written, and no institution has given me any blessing. But it’s free, it’s educational, and it’s fun - come sit in on my class, I will save you a chair in the front.
