NEUROLOGICAL ASPECTS
OF COMMUNICATION
June 9 – August 1
We will focus on normal functions; aspects of
disease, trauma, and developmental disruptions
will be addressed in cases designed to solidify
knowledge of typical structures and functions.
To achieve this, we will use a problem-based
approach, utilizing case studies to highlight
neurophysiological principles and potential
breakdowns. Furthermore, student presentations
discussing the neurological underpinnings of
various diseases, processes, and phenomena
forge further connections in this understanding,
along with an introduction to interpretations
of neuroimaging, neuroscience research, and
pathologies, and an emerging understanding
of the brain and nervous system as a distributed
network develops. (CSD 440)
