Clinical Neuroscience II

Catalog description

Clinical Neuroscience II is a continuation of Clinical Neuroscience I and is an integrated approach to human nervous system structure and function with an emphasis on the structures within the cranial region. The anatomy and functional components of the brainstem, cranial nerves, cerebellum and cerebrum will be studied in detail. Special emphasis will be placed on congenital or acquired disorders of the cranial region commonly seen in clinical practice, including the association of clinical presentation to anatomical location of pathology. This course will include the gross examination of the human nervous system and its surrounding connective tissues and blood supply in cadaveric prosections and/or images.
