Looking for website on Molecular Neuroscience

AI Thread Summary
A user is searching for a free neuroscience website that provides detailed information about neurons, receptors, and synapses at a molecular level. The site is believed to be created by a professor aiming to make neuroscience accessible without ads or promotional links. Although the user initially thought it might be "Neuroscience for Kids," they confirmed it was not. They recall the site focusing on neurosignaling and are exploring various online resources, including links to sites like the NCBI, Psy-World, and McGill's Brain website, which offer educational materials ranging from beginner to expert levels. The discussion also highlights a recommendation for the Cell Signalling Biology site, which provides valuable insights and graphics related to cell signaling, sponsored by the Biochemical Journal.

Hello, some time ago I found a website dedicated to neuroscience. It deals with neurons, receptors, synapses etc on molecular level.

The site is free and has a lot of information, including pictures, diagrammes etc.

I think it is a project of some professor who wants that information be available to everyone for free. I think there weren't even ads or links to his non-free books.

I thought I bookmarked it, but I can't find it. Anyone have idea of what I'm looking for?

Neuroscience for kids?

(don't let the title fool you, it's packed with information)

No, wasn't that one. But thank you for replying.

Edit: I think it was mostly about neurosignalling, but not sure.

I see a lot of hits for "online neuroscience tutorial", but I'm just shooting in the dark really.
 
Ah, Purves. Old school.

This is one of my favorites. Note there is a level selector on the top so you can read lessons in beginner intermediate or expert detail. Once you are inside a topic there is a field selector from social to molecular.
 
I think this page was referenced here a while back -

I keep meaning to properly read through the course notes I had downloaded a while back, but it looks like there are new notes for 2012...

Cell Signalling Biology
This major contribution to the field of cell signalling by one of the world's leading experts, Professor Sir Michael Berridge (Cambridge) is now sponsored by the Biochemical Journal's Signal Knowledge Environment ensuring online access is freely available to all.PS: I highly recommend this site. Very good descriptions and images/graphics.
