The aim of the course is to have general organizational principles at the basis of the neurophysiological, neuropathological and pharmacological correlates and their integration with conditions of the nervous system. A key focus will be posed on non-pharmacological rehabilitative interventions.
The student must know the fundamental principles of neuropathological phenomena, integrating the knowledge transmitted by previous courses (anatomy, physiology, pharmacology).
The course also aims at offering an overview of the steps leading to the genesis of a scientific hypothesis and the development of a scientific research.
