Job description

Education Unlimited® offers academic summer camps and pre‑college programs for students in grades 4‑12. Our camps cover public speaking, college admissions prep, science, acting, writing, computer, leadership, video production, and college tours.

Course Description

In the Neuroanatomy course, students learn the basic cell biology of a neuron and how neurons interact. They then apply this knowledge to the anatomy and physiology of various brain systems, using fictitious neurological patients. The focus is on the cerebral cortex, subcortical structures, and the visual system.

This interactive course uses videos, images, and hands‑on activities such as building model systems with Play‑Doh or Model Magic, dissecting a sheep brain, and conducting lab demos. Students culminate their learning with case‑study presentations in a Grand Rounds‑style format, adopting roles of neurologists, psychiatrists, or neuro‑radiologists.
