/neuroflow:quiz

Neuroscience quiz — test your knowledge with flashcards, a pub quiz, or rapid-fire questions.

/quiz runs an interactive neuroscience quiz covering any subfield or general neuroscience. Supports three modes.

When to use it

  • You want to review neuroscience concepts during a break
  • You need printable flashcards for study or teaching
  • You're organising a neuroscience-themed pub quiz night
  • You want quick rapid-fire Q&A to test recall

Three modes

Generates a set of 10 question/answer cards (or as many as you request). Cards use precise scientific language calibrated to the chosen subfield.

After generation, Claude asks if you want to save a printable layout — a Markdown file formatted for A4 printing (two-column table, front left, back right). Saved to the current working directory.

Generates 15 questions across three rounds of increasing difficulty:

  • Round 1 — Warm-up: accessible broad neuroscience facts
  • Round 2 — Lab coat required: more technical, methods and mechanisms
  • Round 3 — Nobel territory: advanced, cutting-edge, or Nobel Prize–linked discoveries

Each question includes an answer and a one-sentence "fun fact" to read aloud. Claude also suggests 5 neuro-themed house rules for the event.

Rapid-fire Q&A — one question at a time. After each answer Claude gives immediate feedback (✅ / ❌), the correct answer, and a brief explanation. Keeps a running score shown after every 5 questions.

Question formats vary: direct recall, multiple choice, true/false, fill-in-the-blank. Continue until you say "stop", "enough", or "quit".

Subfield selection

After mode is confirmed, Claude asks:

"Any particular area, or keep it general? Examples: neuroanatomy, EEG/oscillations, synaptic physiology, cognitive neuroscience, clinical neuroscience, neuroimaging, pharmacology, developmental neuroscience — or just say 'general'."

Default: general neuroscience.
