About the course
Aim
By the end of the course the student will be able to:
Knowledge and understanding
- Identify, describe, and provide a detailed account of complex neurobiological processes
- Relate neurobiological phenomena to cellular and molecular mechanisms
Competence and skills
- Acquire, define the scope of, and compile knowledge from various biological and medical areas relevant to neurobiology
- Integrate acquired knowledge with current research in medical neurobiology
- Use common techniques prevalent in neurobiological research
Judgement and approach
- Evaluate and discuss results from scientific publications in the field of neurobiology
- Evaluate and discuss results obtained from experimental studies within neurobiology
Content
