Learning unit contents
Neuroanatomy introduction
This unit provides the fundamental knowledge for physiotherapy and motor sciences students concerning the structure of the nervous system and its vegetative and somatic sensorimotor systems.
Practical neuroanatomy applied to motor sciences
Case analyses based on the neuroanatomical and -physiological teaching.
Neurophysiology introduction
Neurophysiology
- Somatic sensory systems : somesthesia, vision, hearing, gustation, olfaction
- Somatic motor systems: motor unit, segmental control of motor unit, suprasegmental control, motor learning
- Cognition, emotions, behavior
- Sleep & wakefulness, consciousness
- Homeostasis
Biochemistry
This module presents the nervous system through anatomy, histology, physiology, biochemistry and semiology. The biochemistry is concerned by neurotransmitters synthesis, their release mechanisms,the neurotransmitters receptors and their post-synaptic activities.
Histology
workshop
Contra-indications
In order to ensure that sport practice can be done in good conditions, it is necessary to know and control any contraindications and precautions to be taken in the context of neurological pathologies (epilepsy, multiple sclerosis...).
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Neuroanatomy introduction
The general objective of this course is to provide the student with an understanding of the structure of the normal nervous system and sensory organs. The course contents have been chosen with the help of the physiotherapy and motor science teachers in order to provide a large knowledge base that is necessary and adequate for further teaching. This course is part of a multidisciplinary strategy which leads the
- physiotherapy student from the understanding of the normal structure and function of the human nervous system to its abnormalities and to neurological disorders. This lays the ground for the course teaching neurological physiotherapy, as well as the integrative course "Problem Based Learning" ("Apprentissage par problèmes - Approche multidisciplinaire du système nerveux appliquée à la kinésithérapie."), and
- the students of motor sciences to a neuroanatomical basis for the following applied course.
Learning objectives are outlined in a list provided to the students.
Practical neuroanatomy applied to motor sciences
Application and strengthening of neuroanatomical and -physiological understanding.
Neurophysiology introduction
The general objective of this course is to provide the student with an understanding of the structure and function of the normal nervous system and sensory organs. The course contents have been chosen with the help of teaching dentists, in order to provide a large knowledge base that is necessary and adequate for further teaching of dentistery and to understand common observations in the daily dental practice: pain and associated reactions, including emotions and visceral responses, topographical descriptions of the innervation of the teeth, ...
The function of the nervous system is profoundly rooted in its structure. The understanding of physiology will thus be inevitably based on anatomical knowledge.
The neurophysiological teaching will provide the student with the necessary bases for him/her to establish a solid foundation of knowledge of the physiology of the nervous system and special sense organs. The student will integrate the multiple interactions between somatic motor systems, sensory systems, cognition, emotion, sleep-wake mechanisms and the vegetative nervous system, as well as their intimate link to the regulation of the metabolic environment, cerebrospinal fluid circulation and vascularisation of the nervous system.
Biochemistry
To known the biochemical, anatomical, histological and physiological basis of the nervous system in order to be able to understand the diseases of this system.
The Biochemistry partim is focused on neurotransmitters : synthesis, release mechanisms, receptors and post-synaptic effects.
