一、課程簡介:
THIS COURSE IS AIMED TO DELIVER ENHANCED KNOWLEDGE AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS OF THE NEUROPATHOLOGY OF COMMON AND UNIQUE DISORDERS AFFECTING THE CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEMS AND SKELETAL MUSCLE. STUDENTS ENROLLED IN THIS COURSE WILL BE FAMILIARIZED WITH RECENTLY RECOGNIZED MOLECULAR MECHANISMS UNDERLYING THE PATHOLOGICAL PROCESSES RELATED TO THE NERVOUS SYSTEMS. EACH LECTURE WILL PROVIDE A TIMELY COMPILATION OF ARTICLES THAT ENCOMPASS THE MOST UP-TO-DATE INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO SELECTED NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS AT THE MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR LEVEL. IMPROVED UNDERSTANDING TO THE CLINICAL, RADIOLOGIC AND PATHOLOGIC CORRELATIONS, AND THE PROGNOSTIC FACTORS OF CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM LESIONS WILL ALSO BE ADDRESSED.

COURSE MATERIALS AND SUGGESTED READINGS WILL BE SELECTED FROM THE REVIEW ARTICLES PUBLISHED IN SUCH PRESTIGIOUS JOURNALS AS ANNUAL REVIEW OF NEUROSCIENCE, NATURE REVIEW OF NEUROSCIENCE, TRENDS IN NEUROSCIENCE, CURRENT OPINION IN NEUROBIOLOGY, NATURE, SCIENCE, AND CELL ETC.
