Objective

Students are familiar with the structures, development and functions of the central and peripheral nervous systems. They understand the role of the central nervous system (CNS) in regulation of human performance and behaviour. They know the structure and functions of sensory systems. Students recognise how CNS disorders can affect human performance and functioning. Students know the symptoms of key neurological diseases and paediatric neurological diseases found in Finland, models and recommendations of clinical examination and neurological treatment. Students know the principles of preventing neurological diseases, relevant treatment guidelines and rehabilitation activities.
