OTMS 5120 Neuroscience Foundations for Occupational Therapy with Lab
This course involves the study of the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the human nervous system and the effect on occupational performance as it applied to the practice of occupational therapy. Students will be presented with case studies which reinforce the clinical application of the course topics. In lab, students will engage in activities related to the assessment of neurological function and investigate neuranaotmic structures using resources such as brain atlases and images. Lab experiences will also include assessments to help clarify the functional implications correlated with neurological diseases and conditions that occupational therapists may see in clinical practice.
