NEUROSCIENCE
BASIC NEUROSCIENCE
Neuroscience is one of the basic medical sciences studying morphology and function of a healthy nervous system, with an emphasis on the mechanisms responsible for achieving its role as a central organism control and management system. This course will introduce students to problems in this area and enable them to approach problems using scientific methods. The aim of the Basic neuroscience course is to teach a student how to use the acquired knowledge on physics, chemistry, biochemistry, biology, anatomy, histology and physiology in acquiring knowledge on the normal function of the nervous system to the extent necessary for further successful studying.
CONTENT
The Basic neuroscience course lectures will be held during the 4th semester
with a total duration of 115 teaching hours.
