Course objectives
At the end of the Neuroscience course, students will have sufficient theoretical background required for physician. Students should be able to recall known principles of central and peripheral nervous systems. Students will be able to explain brain development, interneuron communication, and its impairment of experience or disease. Students will be able to give reasons why a human being is moving, perceiving, thinking and remembering.

Teaching methods
Lessons are led in the form of lectures and practicals.
Assessment methods
Completion of Neuroscience course is written examination - students write answers to 3 questions during two hours period. In the 1st question the emphasis is on neuroanatomical knowledge, in the 2nd question the emphasis is on neurophysiological knowledge. The 3rd question is integrative and tests your ability to describe the issue from the perspective of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology together. Each question is graded P (passed) or N (no-passed). Obtaining grade N from any question (either neuroanatomy or neurophysiology) is evaluated as N (no-passed) from the whole examination.
