Clinical Neuro Sciences: Course Outline

• The students will have advance knowledge about the anatomy, physiology and clinical variation of the nervous tissue..
• The students will be able to understand the process of normal development of nervous tissue includes the brain and spinal cord.
• The students will be able to understand the mechanism of function and the physiological response of the nervous tissue.
•  The students will be able to understand the consequences of nervous tissue injury and its effects on the body over all function.
