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 (including motor planning, motor control, and motor learning). Also included in this semester and tied to components of each course are several structured clinical or clinically-related exposures that serve as a mechanism for understanding clinical relevance of practice and patient care principles covered during the semester.
