Feinstein is a great professor. You can really tell he is passionate about teaching this class. He makes everything interesting and clear. I actually found myself looking forward to this class and was sad it had to end. My favorite MCDB class by far.

Dr. Feinstien is a great professor. His class follows a chronological story of evolution of the nervous system. His slides are good at leading students toward the correct way of thinking, and his explanations are often very intuitive, yet straightforward. Take the honors section.

This class is his passion, and his enthusiasm is pretty infectious. You will have to go to class- posted slides online don't have everything he goes over

He is awesome. This class was so interesting and I'm pretty sure I'm changing to Cell Dev. partially due to this class. I really recommend this class. The exam don't seem too difficult until you get the test back and see your grade. Grading is HARSH but this class is so worth it and there's a curve.

Very good teacher- I really enjoyed his class. I didn't do any of the reading, just studied lecture notes, and ended up doing really well. Definitely a lot of work, mostly memorization. He's interesting and I would recommend this class.

Amazing and Hilarious! Friday fun facts are not to miss! You learn a lot in the class but is well worth it if you plan on going on to graduate/professional school

The best professor I've had so far. He makes the materials very clearly and fun. He's very approchable and helpful during office hours. This class is indeed challenging. Make sure you get some sense of DNA/RNA/protein techniques and experimental procedures before you take this class. Getting good TAs are critical too.

One of the hardest classes i have taken at UCSB. But an amazing class, you learn EVERYTHING about the cell. He is really funny in office hours and in class. He is one of those profs. that if u see him in office hours all the time he will bump up ur grade!
