KINESIOL 3HN3 - Human Neurophysiology

3 unit(s)

Provides an in-depth exploration of the sensorimotor cortex and spinal pathways that control movement of the upper and lower limbs. Topics will include mono and poly-synaptic reflex pathways and their modulation, electrophysiology measures as indices of nerve conduction, non-invasive brain stimulation, and electroencephalography. Emphasis placed on gaining theoretical and technical skills to perform human neurophysiology.
Lectures/lab (three hours); one term
