Annotation

This elective subject is oriented to extended information (over the standard content of instructions in Pathophysiology of central nervous system, Neurology and Psychiatry) on current spectrum of neuro-psychiatric disorders, principles of modern diagnostic methods for their diagnostics and possibilities of treatment. Some particular cases are demonstrated during seminars and practical classes in Neurology, Psychiatry and at Dept. of pathophysiology. Students present their own selected topics that are discussed in the last seminar.
