NS 601 - Neuroanatomy

(3 units)

Introduction to human neuroanatomy. The course will be taught using human neuroanatomy as the basis learning the specifics of the central nervous system, sensory systems, motor systems, and integrative systems. Neuroanatomy of model systems commonly used in research will be integrated within the specific course sections.

Maximum units a student may earn: 3

Grading Basis: Graded
Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Fall and Spring

Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. identify nervous system structures on gross anatomy specimens and neuroimaging.
2. describe nervous system structures and their functions.
3. describe how the different structures within the nervous system are interconnected.
4. apply knowledge of the nervous system structures/functions to critically think through clinical case studies.
5. compare and contrast nervous system components across species.
6. describe neuroanatomy structures/functions relevant to their specific graduate research focus.
