Description
Clinical neuroscience is a five credit lecture and lab course in which students receive the neuroanatomical and neurophysiology foundations for understanding normal function, dysfunction and clinical interventions. There is an emphasis on the neuroscience related to posture, movement, cognition and sensory functions. Cadavers and models are used to enhance the students' three dimensional understanding of the material. The neuropathology component of the course uses a case study format to strengthen the students' knowledge of the etiology and clinical features of the neurological conditions that they are most likely to treat in clinical practice.
