PEMM 211 Neurobiology of Disease

This course covers the clinical, cellular and molecular perspectives of neurologic disorders.  Different disease topics will be used to compare and contrast commonalities and differences across diseases covering a range of neurobiological processes.   The course will be team taught by clinicians and experts from the neuroscience faculty who will give a one hour didactic lecture in the first session of the week, followed by a 1.5 hour student-led presentation, critique and discussion on the topic chosen by the faculty for that week.  Students will be evaluated based on performance on written assignments, presentations, and participation in discussion.
