Course Syllabus Psychology 267 Clinical Neuroscience Larry Wichlinski Spring Term, 2016 1 Course Syllabus Psychology 267 Clinical Neuroscience Larry Wichlinski Spring Term, 2016 Office: Olin 123, Ext. 4377, e-mail: LWICHLIN Office Hours: Tuesday 1-3 p.m. Wed. 4a; Fri. 4a and by appointment Required Books: Pistorius, M. (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. The exams will be open book take- home tests consisting of a small number of open-ended integrative questions that will require you to summarize across a wide range of articles. Make-up exams and quizzes will be given only in cases of personal illness or family emergency. 2 Special Needs Please let me know if you have special needs. I will work with you to accommodate those needs. Class Project Everyone will be required to do an individual class project. Your task will be to research the neurobiology of a disorder that we have NOT covered in this course. You will generate an annotated bibliography of 10-15 articles that were published in the last three years. I will give you a separate handout for that assignment. Grades The breakdown for each component of the course is as follows: 1st quiz 10% 2nd quiz 10% Class Project 20% Midterm Exam 25% Final Exam 25% Class Participation 10% You may take a quiz early if a college activity requires that you leave campus on the day the exam is scheduled. Please make arrangements with me at least a week before you want to take it. E-tiquette Please turn off your cell phones during class, unless you’re using them to access assigned readings. Also, I don’t mind people using computers during class, as long as it’s for taking notes and classroom-related activities. (Facebook and Instagram do not count as classroom activities). Miscellaneous I will try to stick as close to the syllabus as I possibly can. However, I may alter the amount of time we spend on any individual topic. Should you need to see me, please do not hesitate to stop by during my office hours, or at some other time if my office hours are not convenient for you. Just make an appointment with me. 3 I do not generally answer e-mail on weekends. I will respond to your e-mail as soon as I can when I get back to my office on Monday. I believe that this is one course whose investment in time and energy has great long-term payoff. I hope you do, too. Have a great term! Date Day Topic and Assignment Mar. 28th Mon.

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.
