Course Description

The Neuroscience Academy exposes students to the fundamentals of neurobiology incorporating a clinical focus from which to explore how the nervous system functions. Patient cases will be used to

  • Promote discussion of central nervous system (CNS) injuries, related disorders, and diseases across the lifespan,
  • Guide your learning of CNS function by studying cellular (neurons/glia) through systems (sensory/motor/cognitive) anatomy,
  • Facilitate your skills to search for information using primary, secondary, and tertiary sources,
  • Introduce you to medical treatments, medication, brain imaging, and related basic science and clinical research,
  • Enhance your awareness of careers in the medical profession and undergraduate majors to get you there,
  • Explore topics of neuroethics, and
  • Help you to develop, contribute, and compete in small groups as a final project. You'll leave the program with an understanding and appreciation of some governing principles of nervous system design, function, effect of injury, and recovery of function.
