Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

Neuroanatomy- Neurophysiology

Aim

The course aims to provide an understanding of the structure and function of the nervous system from the properties of individual nerve cells to their fuction in organized neuronal circuits that produce behavoir.

The Neuroanatomy section covers the anatomy and organization of the nervous system, including spinal cord and pathways, sensory and motor systems, brain anatomy, autonomic nervous system (ANS) and cerebral circulation.

The Neyrophysiology section covers membrane potentials, synaptic transmission, neurotransmitters, spinal reflexes, ANS, somatosensory system, special senses control of voluntary movement, basal ganglia, cerebellum, cerebrospinal fluid, Blood Brain Barrier, sleep and wakefulness, electroencephalogram, learning and memory.

At the end of this course, which is delivered by both lectures and practicals, students will be able to describe the anatomy and the functional mechanisms of the human nervous system.

 

Course objectives

This course aims to provide knowledge about the anatomy, cellular physiology, and normal function of the human nervous system.

 

Course content

The course covers the subjects of Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous System, while the labs of the course focus on the structure, function and the regulating mechanisms of the Nervous System.

 

Attendance

Attendance is mandatory for both lectures and labs/clinical practice. Students are allowed to be absent up to 18 hours of lectures (which corresponds to a maximum of  20% of the total lectures hours).

Neuroanatomy

Specifically, in lectures of the specific course you are allowed to miss 9 hours whereas in labs you are not allowed absence.

Neurophysiology

Specifically, in lectures of the specific course you are allowed to miss 9 hours whereas in labs you are not allowed absence.

 

Examinations

This course is examined through written multiple-choice question (MCQ) exams on material taught during lectures and lab practicals. The right to a written examination is granted only if all the lab practicals have been attended. In the case that the exam is not passed, the candidate can resit the examination during the resit examination period

A grade of five (5) out of ten (10) or higher is required for a course to be considered complete.

NOTE: "Neuroanatomy-Neurophysiology" is a course consisting of two parts, therefore the minimum pass mark for each part is 5 (five) in the same examination period. The minimum grade of 5 (five) corresponds to 50% correct answers from the set of questions, in each exam.

In case the student fails the exam (below 50% of correct answers), he has the right to try again in the repeat exam in September.

NOTE: In case the student has received a transferable grade in one of the two parts (Neuroanatomy or Neurophysiology), then the transferable grade will be kept until the repeat exam in September, where he will have the right to give the part in which he did not receive a transfer degree. If he does not get 50% of correct answers again, then he is obliged to repeat the exam in the whole course (in both parts, Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology)
