Annotation -
The subject is focused on multidisciplinary problem-oriented teaching of neurobehavioral sciences, combination of theoretical, preclinical and clinical emphasizing general phenomena occurring across all pathological situations that are common to many medical disciplines. The subject follows up on clinical propaedeutic and precedent preclinical and theoretical disciplines. The course mainly discusses morphological, functional and imaging aspects related to the diagnosis of movement disorders, behavioral disorders, memory disorders, speech disorders. The basics of psychiatric disorders are also discussed.

Learning outcomes -

The student has knowledge of previous subjects (anatomy, histology, embryology, physiology, pathophysiology) related to the nervous system.

The student will acquire the knowledge needed as a starting point in subsequent subjects dealing fully or partially with the nervous system (neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry, imaging methods of ophthalmology, otorhinolaryngology), especially knowledge that is needed in several subjects.

The student will gain an interdisciplinary view of the nervous system and will be able to transfer knowledge from one subject to the issues of other subjects.
