PTR 516 - Applied Neuroscience

Applied neuroscience takes the concepts and foundational knowledge of Neuroscience and applies these to the study of several common disorders of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The course focuses on the understanding about the location of a CNS lesion or the neurophysiological mechanisms of the underlying disease process. Modified problem-based tutorial sessions will provide a forum for student-facilitated discussions of clinical case studies as well as oral presentation on different neurological disorders. Relationships between anatomy, neurophysiology, and clinical presentations are emphasized.
