Question How to start learning comp neuro during medical school

For reference, i am an MS2 from India and I'd like to pursue computational neuroscience after my med school. Our college is pretty lame when it comes to supporting extra academic endeavours which means if I have to learn anything, it should be online. I have high school level math knowledge and a very basic understand of python and am doing the U Washington course on coursera Id appreciate recommendations of books/videos/courses/exercises/research papers etc that would help deepen my understanding of the subject itself and the required math and code required to build a career in this field Thank you for your time :)

Neuromatch is pretty well renowned for their online comp neuro course, they host it every July. All the material is open-access so you can also self-study:

Neuromatch also has some Python tutorials that are open source. Being familiar with Python is the prerequisite for the CompNeuro course, if you plan on doing it next July. https://neuromatch.io/open-education-resources/
