ANAT 312 Functional Neuroanatomy Units: 3.00
Study of the structure and function of the nervous system by lectures, hands-on laboratories, brain dissection, and readings. Topics include, but are not limited to, sensory and motor systems, brain imaging, and clinical examples.
Requirements: Prerequisite (ANAT 215 and ANAT 216) or (ANAT 315 and ANAT 316) or (PHGY 215 and PHGY 216).
Offering Faculty: Faculty of Health Sciences
Course Learning Outcomes:
- Understand and apply appropriate anatomical terms and concepts for the purpose of identification, effective communication and critical reading of relevant literature.
- Analyze the gross (macroscopic) and histological (microscopic) anatomy of the tissues and organs that constitute the human nervous system.
- Employ a systematic logical thinking process to help you recognize anatomical structures and predict the physiological functions of the nervous system.
- Describe the integrated relationship between gross and histological neuroanatomy with respect to structure and function, and be able to extend that knowledge to various aspects of development and function.
- Demonstrate an ability to collaborate and work effectively and respectfully with diverse teams.
