• "The program has been an amazing experience! The teacher, Jim Bohnslav has been an influential, and inspirational figure. He has inspired me to definitely go into Neurology... The program itself is great but Jim takes it to a whole other level! The program was very interactive and the information was concise and meaningful. I learned a lot here that I would find nowhere else. It has been a great learning experience and enjoyed it greatly."

• 'Neuroscience was already an interesting topic to me but taking the neuroscience course in the program interested me more. It was the perfect pace and Mr. Hoe explained different concepts very well. Usually I don't retain knowledge from HS courses(long term) but because what we learned was made interesting and hands-on, I will be able to use this knowledge in the future for many things. '
