Course Objectives	The aim of this course is for students to learn the structure and function of central, peripheric and autonomic nervous systems and functional disorders resulting from insult to these structures.
Learning Outcomes	The students who succeeded in this course; Define the macro and micro structures of central, peripheric and autonomic nervous systems. Define the functional properties of neuroanatomic structures. Explain the interactions between sensory, perceptual and motor processes of neuroanatomic structures. List the findings and symptoms in functional disorders of neuroanatomic structures. Discuss the novel research studies in movement neuroscience.
Course Description	This course covers basic structure and function, and clinical findings in pathologies of peripheric nervous system, spinal cord, brainstem, diencephalon and telencephalon, novel research in movement neuroscience and daily examples related to the function of neuroanatomic structures.
