This course (structured as a segment of Introduction to Clinical Medicine and offered in medical school year two) is intended to give pre-clinical students a working knowledge of functional neuropsychology, human psychological growth and development, psychopathology, and psychotherapeutics.
The major emphasis of the course is on the neurobiology which forms the current basis for psychiatric diagnosis and therapeutics and which points to likely future developments in the neurosciences which contribute to this clinical field now and in the future. Teaching methods include independent reading and literature searches, didactic lectures, web-based content and videotaped patient demonstrations.
