CNSL 808 - Foundations of Neuropsychology
This course is an advanced seminar with the goal of introducing students to the theory and practice of Clinical Neuropsychology. Students will gain an understanding of the field through review of adult and pediatric medical diseases and psychological disorders. The psychosocial adjustment of patients living with each disorder and the dynamics among individuals involved in their care are additional themes of emphasis.
