Learn Something New Every Day (Wheaton Neurobiology claymation)

This claymation short was made to have fun and to learn the actions of the molecular players involved in long-term sensitization as shown in Figure 63-5 of Principles of Neural Science by Kandel, Schwartz, and Jessell (2000). (http://www.mcgraw-hill.com.au/html/9780838577011.html) It was created by the students of BIO324 Neurobiology at Wheaton College in Norton MA with little warning and as a spur-of-the-moment idea during one lab on December 7, 2011, under the direction of Professor Bob Morris.

Screenplay, direction, and editing by Bob Morris, Professor of Biology, Wheaton College, Norton MA.
