Comment:
Definitely the hardest class that I've ever taken at Tufts and the material covered was fairly interested but taught in a very non-linear way so I'm not really sure how much I learned. Tests are absolutely brutal and a lot of studying (and luck) is needed to succeed on them. Overall Trimmer is awesome person but a fairly disorganized lecturer

Comment:
Professor Trimmer is extremely passionate about the material - his sense of humor and engaging teaching style make the class great. Exams were only MC and short, but killer (avg on the first 2 was a 60. He was very helpful during his office hours and held review sessions before exams. You'll be challenged, but Trimmer is as quality as them come.

He's a great, great, great teacher. His research is pretty cool too. I am amazed at his level of enthusiasm, as well as the depth at which he covers the material. Not for the weak of heart. His tests are brutal

Awesome class. Difficult material, but he is a great lecturer. If you go to all the classes it will make sense. Tests are fair and you can get an A if you work for it. Good textbook. Supplemental readings not really talked about.

Neurobiology is hard material- he lectures very well, but he leaves holes in concepts that are hard to make sense of. Exams are fair but difficult. He is funny and enthusiastic.

Comment:
i love his english accent. and his lectures are interesting, although they could be much better organized. i was a bit disappointed that we didn't cover as much ground as expected, but what we did cover was cool. exams weren't too tough.
