PT 612 Structure & Function II

This tutorial-based course covers the structure and function of the normal and impaired neurological system. Anatomy of the central, peripheral, and autonomic nervous systems are examined in the context of patient cases with common neurological pathology to understand the interactive effects of normal, pathological, developmental, or age-related and environmental influences on movement, perception, cognition, and social development (including motor planning, motor control, and motor learning). Students will explore the following aspects of neuropathology that may impair the movement system (etiology, clinical manifestation, diagnostic testing, medical management, and prognosis).
