Description
The course assumes basic knowledge of neuroanatomy and focuses on the understanding of neural function provided by a study of congenital malformation of structure, brain disease, and behavioural loss. Topics include the following: developmental anomalies and associated behaviours; plasticity and recovery of function following insult or disease; localization of function; hemispheric specialization; epilepsy. Although not a prerequisite, Human Neuropsychology would be especially useful as a background for all the following courses: PSYC-2600(3), PSYC-3600(3), and PSYC-4600(3).
