Join us as Natasha Selby, a 4th Year Medical Student at QUB, takes us through some fundamental (and not so fundamental) neuroanatomy! This session, which is the first of a weekly series, will focus on major cortical structures. Learning neuroanatomy for the first time? Consolidating what you already know? Hoping to learn something new? Looking to compete in the NUNC? We've got something for you!
Neuroanatomy, Major Cortical Structures
Catch-up content
1Description
Summary
Unveil the complexities of neuroanatomy with Natasha Selby, a 4th Year Medical Student at QUB. Be part of the first in a series of weekly sessions focusing on major cortical structures. Whether you're learning neuroanatomy for the first time, consolidating existing knowledge, or aiming to win at the NUNC, this session has something for everyone. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your neuroanatomy knowledge.
Learning objectives
-
Understand the basic structure and organization of the cerebral cortex, including the four lobes and their functions.
-
Demonstrate knowledge of the key cortical structures, such as the prefrontal cortex, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, and temporal lobe.
-
Identify the functional areas of the cortex including those responsible for motor, sensory, and cognitive functions.
-
Analyze and interpret the structural and functional aspects of the cortical areas, using neuroimaging.
-
Apply the knowledge of cortical structures to potential clinical scenarios, understanding how abnormalities in these areas can result in specific clinical symptoms and deficits.
