I am writing to let you know that a new neuroscience resource can now
be accessed via the internet. THE NEUROSCIENTIST, a new bimonthly
review journal edited by Stephen G. Waxman, M.D, Ph.D., of the Yale
University School of Medicine, has begun posting selected articles in
gopherspace and will soon have a World Wide Web homepage available for
access.
To find out more about THE NEUROSCIENTIST and how you can access these
articles, simply send an e-mail message to me at the address
ckaufman at access.digex.net and put the words "MORE INFORMATION" in the
subject heading.
For those interested, I have also put together a partial list of review
articles that will be featured in upcoming issues of THE NEUROSCIENTIST:
