PR4. Solve complex problems in the field of biology, generate and evaluate ideas. PR14. Adhere to the norms of academic integrity during the study and conduct of scientific activities, know the basic legal norms for the protection intellectual property. PR39. Be able to use existing and develop new algorithms for research of various physiological states of the human and animal body, which arise under certain conditions of existence on the basis of modern data on physiological mechanisms underlying life.

1. Know the principles of structure and function of the human brain. 2. Be able to describe the basic physiological processes associated with the functioning of the nervous system 3. Have basic computer skills, understanding of English.

During the study of the course the mechanisms of signal transduction, formation of membrane potentials, functioning of the main neurochemical systems of the brain are considered. The dynamics of information processes of the brain is studied, the concept of canonical and non-canonical neural networks is given, the role of expansion of the social cortex is revealed. The organization and functioning of the main distributed neural networks of the brain (significant, central executive and default, attention systems, mirror neurons) are considered. Knowledge gained in the discipline of "General Neurophysiology" can be used in research of physiological sciences, in particular, such as CNS physiology, psychophysiology, pathological physiology, physiology of work and sports, age physiology, and in interdisciplinary sciences (psychology, engineering psychology, zoopsycho etc.).
