Cellular and Molecular Basis of Cognition in Health and Diseases

to understand fundamental neuronal mechanisms underlying learning and memory processes and to transfer this knowledge to neurological and psychiatric diseases

At the end of the course students are expected to be able to:
- Understand and analyze neuronal adaptation mechanisms specifically related to learning and memorization processes
- Better understand aspects of molecular neuroscience
- Know and understand the pathogenetic mechanisms of the main brain diseases
- Understand the mechanism of action of drugs
- Carry out a bibliographic search
- Critically analyze a scientific article
- Write a study report
- Make a scientific presentation
