The clinical neuroscience program (CNS) is a comprehensive, evidence-based series of modules that come together to teach the breadth, depth, and application of clinical neuroscience.
What is Breadth? Throughout the CNS program, scholars will be taught on subject material that is common to all healthcare professionals and needed for the diagnosis and recognition of neurological dysfunction. This includes neuroanatomy, physiology, and the pathology of the nervous system and related systems.
What is Depth? Building upon the breadth of neuroscience, the depth of the CNS program allows practitioners clarity into the clinical thought process and neurophysiology as it relates to the scholar’s specific profession. Our programs are taught at a depth that allows clinicians to be more specific in the assessment, diagnosis, integration, and recognition of the various systems that influence disorders of humankind.
What is Application?: Building upon the breadth and depth of the field of clinical neuroscience, the CNS program dives deep into the physical and functional neurorehabilitation strategies that are specific to the practitioner when applying a functional neurology paradigm of care.
Breadth, depth and application is what allows for clinical mastery.
The clinician of the future will develop individualized neurophysiological approaches of care for their patients.
Human movement is critical for survival. In this module, we discuss the building blocks of the neuromuscular system by reviewing in detail muscular development and structure. We further discuss how muscles communicate with the CNS to provide a steady-state of feedback allowing for fluid movement control. The most common primary myopathies and will be reviewed along with the most common neuromuscular disorders.
In this module, you will learn pertinent anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology as related to the neuromuscular system. You will learn the appropriate assessments as well as the information needed to make an appropriate diagnosis for the most common conditions related to the function of the neuromuscular system. A neurological and physical medicine approach to supporting patients with these conditions will be presented.
