ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL NEUROANATOMY

Catalog description

This course consists of an in-depth study of the anatomy of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Focus will be placed on the brain stem, cranial nerves, peripheral nerves as well as the cerebral cortex. An anatomically focused identification of common sites of pathology will be undertaken, with particular emphasis on CNS pathology such as demyelinative, vascular and traumatic lesions. . This course will serve a major foundation for the anatomical basis for functional neurorehabilitation studies in future courses. Pre-requisites: NEUR 5300 Review of Human Neurobiology
