Course content
The discipline studies the laws of evolution, structural organization and functioning of the central nervous system of humans and animals from the neural level to the level of regulatory systems of the brain. During the study of the course the structural and functional organization of the spinal cord and all parts of the brain, the main pathological processes that occur in the defeat of various structures of the nervous system. This discipline is taught in the amount of 90 hours. The course includes 2 content modules and 2 module tests. The discipline ends with an exam. Knowledge gained from the discipline "Physiology of the Central Nervous System" can be used in research of physiological sciences (physiology of sensory systems, physiology of blood circulation, physiology of digestion, physiology of work and sports, etc.) and in other sciences (pharmacology; environmental physiology, psychology, zoopsychology, etc.).
