Scholarpedia intends to host lecture notes (courses, tutorials) on 
computational neuroscience and related fields. A series of lecture notes 
is treated as any other article in Scholarpedia, except that it consists 
of multiple subpages corresponding to multiple lectures. As any other 
Scholarpedia article,

1.Lecture notes should be written by the leading authority in the field.
2.The notes will be peer-reviewed.
3.Upon acceptance, the author will become the curator of the lecture notes.
4.Other Scholars could edit the notes, but the modifications do not 
appear until the curator approves them.

The goal is to have a number of high-quality lecture notes freely 
available on-line. Each series serves as a basis of a course delivered 
by many professors in many universities. The professors and their 
students could modify the notes through the wiki-style mechanism 
built-in in Scholarpedia, add new material, figures, exercises, and so 
on. Curators will have the opportunity to evaluate such modifications 
before they are made public.

This is an experiment. The number of topics is limited to 5 during the 
spring semester of 2007.

Please, send your proposals to Eugene M. Izhikevich 
<Editor-in-Chief at scholarpedia.org>.

Scholarpedia is a free peer-reviewed encyclopedia that combines
