I’m a first-year CS student, and I’ve recently gotten really interested in computational neuroscience, neuromorphic engineering, and the science of consciousness. I love the idea of figuring out how the brain works and how we might build tech that’s inspired by it, but I have no background in neuroscience at all.

What would you suggest for someone just starting out? Are there beginner-friendly resources, videos, or courses you liked? Do I need to worry about having strong math skills right away, or can I just dive in and pick things up as I go?

If anyone else started from scratch in these topics, I’d really love to hear how you approached it or what you wish you knew at the beginning
