Features: This book is a textbook for the neuroscience course designated as a required elective for students in basic medicine, clinical medicine, preventive medicine, pharmacy, traditional Chinese medicine, and biology at medical schools. Modern neuroscience is a frontier of rapid development in life sciences, especially since the "Decade of the Brain" in the late 20th century, the discipline has gained global attention and is advancing towards the "21st Century of the Brain." Among these, knowledge closely related to medicine has experienced explosive growth. Although numerous neuroscience textbooks in both Chinese and foreign languages have been published in recent years, this book remains a medical-focused basic neuroscience textbook that integrates morphology and function, basic medicine and clinical medicine, and the fundamental theories of traditional disciplines with modern developments. It summarizes the authors' more than ten years of teaching experience and scientific research achievements. The content is concise, richly illustrated, and provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of medical neuroscience. This book is suitable for undergraduate and junior college medical students, undergraduate biology majors, and relevant personnel trained in higher normal schools.
