Residential Class Attendance Policy Attendance is mandatory. You are expected to attend every class meeting. If you are unable to attend you must contact me in advance for an alternative assignment. There may be points associated with class participation. If you do not notify me of your absence in advance, you will not be allowed to make up the points that you missed. Online Attendance Policy Attendance is mandatory. Online students are required to routinely log-into Blackboard and submit their assignments as scheduled by the syllabus. The student will receive a letter of nonattendance if the student has not logged-in to their course or submitted any assignments for more than seven consecutive days per course. Nonattendance could impact a student’s ability to receive financial aid. Online students encountering special situations which will prohibit them from accessing their course and meeting their course obligations should contact their instructor. Instructor Communication Policy: I will make every effort to communicate with you within 48 hours (not including weekends or holidays). E-mail is the most efficient way to communicate with me.

Additionally, if warranted, further action may be taken to address inappropriate or unacceptable behavior, which may include removal from the course and/or program. All assignments in the course should be completed using the most recent publication of the APA manual, especially with regards to writing academic papers. *Note – all assignments are to be submitted electronically in Word format. Assignments: Assignments are designed to reflect the students’ retention and synthesis of knowledge of counseling theories and models. Rubric for evaluation of the discussion board posting is available under the Rubrics tab. Discussion: Discussion enhances learning as you share your ideas, perspectives, and experiences with the class. You develop and refine your thoughts through the writing process, plus broaden your classmates’ understanding of the course content. You promote a professional, substantive discussion. Use the following feedback to improve the quality of your discussion contributions. Discussion will take place in both Residential and Online formats of the course. In the Residential format, students are expected to fully engage in class discussions as outlined in the Rubric below. Instructor guided peer to peer discussion facilitates deeper learning and your development as a professional. In the Online Discussion, you will be two required original posts per week responding to assigned questions to deepen your learning. Students are expected to be thorough in their responses to these questions, using graduate-level writing, correct grammar, and APA format. Please refer to the rubric explaining how postings will be evaluated. Please note there may be multiple questions housed within one posting assignment; and, all questions posed must be addressed. Discussion boards will have two discussion posts per week: the first will be due by 11:59 p.m. CT on the Wednesday of the week, and the second will be due by 11:59 p.m. CT on the Sunday of the week. Responses to other students’ posts (to both discussion boards) are due by 11:59 p.m. CT on the Sunday of the week.

(2013). Ghost Boy. Nashville: Nelson Books. Introduction Welcome to Clinical Neuroscience! In this course we will examine the biological dimensions of disorders of the mind and brain. The goal is to gain a better understanding of the role that biological factors play when our brains and minds go awry. The format of this class will be a combination of lecture and discussion. The class is organized by brain disorder, but some themes recur throughout the course, as you will see. The bulk of the reading assignments are journal articles, most of them quite recently published. In addition, we will read selective websites and a contemporary book, Ghost Boy. Please have the assigned readings done by the time you get to class, if at all possible. Also, please have some form of the articles available during class time. Most of the journal articles are available via the Web of Knowledge through the library’s website. The few that are not available will be put on e-reserve for this course. I’ll let you know which articles fall in this category. I may add readings and/or substitute readings as this course unfolds. I will do my best to let you know of any changes in a timely fashion. Exams & Quizzes There will be two quizzes and two exams in this course. Quizzes will consist of multiple choice and short answer questions.

This article provides an understanding of the effect of malnourishment on the brain for individuals with AN and discusses how their unique needs can be met through the application of the Nourishment Framework. The Nourishment Framework is a structured treatment approach that utilizes the individual components of the Expressive Therapies Continuum (ETC) to address specific clinical needs for those struggling with AN. A case study documents the application of the Nourishment Framework while highlighting the directives and materials used to meet client goals.

  • Neurostimulation Combined with Neuroimaging for Cognitive And
    Sponsored by the UCLA Brain Mapping Center faculty The focus of these talks is on advancing the use of brain mapping methods in neuroscience with an emphasis on contemporary issues of neuroplasticity, neurodevelopment, and biomarker development in neuropsychiatric disease. Hosted By: Danny Wang, Ph.D., Neurology, UCLA Neurostimulation Combined with Neuroimaging forzz Cognitive and Clinical Research Vincent P. Clark, Ph.D. Professor, Department of Psychology Director, Psychology Clinical Neuroscience Center University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM Through a series of technical advances, neuroimaging has made many significant contributions to our understanding of normal human brain function, and the differences associated with brain and mental illness. However, these mainly correlational methods can only be used to infer causal relationships. Other interventional methods must be used to prove or disprove causal relationships. Also, these advances in imaging methods have not turned into direct benefits for patients in many cases, due to a variety of factors. Recent studies have reported that neurostimulation can reduce some symptoms of brain and mental illness and may offer new methods of treatment if safe, effective protocols can be developed. The combination of neuroimaging and neurostimulation together may provide a variety of benefits: improving the efficacy of neurostimulation, gaining a greater understanding of the mechanisms of neurostimulation, offering new methods to test causal hypotheses generated by imaging studies and ultimately providing new neurostimulation-based methods of treatment for brain and mental illness. Dr. Clark will discuss some proof-of-principle examples for the combined application of neuroimaging and neurostimulation and his vision for the future of this area of research.
