Description
The Neuroscience System II course is designed to build upon the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology foundational science information presented in the first-year curriculum to underpin a comprehensive overview of neuropathology, including both non-neoplastic and neoplastic diseases. Neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, clinical neurology, and neurosurgical applications are integrated to build the clinical framework necessary to succeed during third- and fourth-year clinical rotations. Relevant and necessary neurohistology, neuroembryology, and neuroradiology are discussed. Interprofessional Education is an integrated component of this course. Opportunities are provided to learn about and/or practice communication, teamwork, roles and responsibilities, and values and ethics.
