DPT 6303 - Neuroscience Lecture

Credits: 3 hrs

This course provides lectures that cover the gross anatomical structures, functional relationships, and neuroscience of the normal brain and spinal cord. Published text, brain atlases, heuristic models and connectional diagrams are introduced to emphasize the three-dimensional and serial connections and relationships essential to understanding the development and normal function of the central nervous system (CNS). Frequent clinical correlations and case studies provide for the classification, application and analysis of the potential impact of trauma, disease, and abnormal development as major contributors to structural variation and functional disability.
