Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful mastering of the disciplines "Physiology of nerves and muscles", "Physiology of the CNS", "Physiology of sensory systems". 2. Be able to describe the basic physiological processes associated with the functioning of the nervous system. Know the principles of structure and function of the human brain. 3. Possession of basic skills of systems analysis, understanding of English.
Course content
In the course of studying the course the mechanisms of signal transduction, formation of membrane potentials, different types of total electrical activity and evoked potentials, activity of the main functional neural networks of the brain are considered. The dynamics of information processes of the brain is studied, the concept of canonical and non-canonical neural networks, the role of the expansion of the associative 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) and their manifestation in electrical neurodynamics are considered.
