Course details

Who should do this course?
  • For individuals who want to enhance their knowledge & skills in the field
What are the course deliverables?
  • You'll gain a thorough understanding of the structure and function of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves
  • You'll study major neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
  • You'll develop skills in various research methodologies used in neuroscience research, including in vitro and in vivo techniques, neuroimaging, and genetic analysis
  • You'll hone your critical thinking skills to evaluate scientific evidence and develop solutions to research questions related to neurodegeneration
  • You'll learn to write research reports, present your work at conferences, and explain complex scientific concepts to a lay audience
More about this course
  • This part-time, online course enables you to fit your studies around your other commitments, while you develop a comprehensive understanding of neuroscience and neurodegenerative disease
  • It covers the fundamental biology of the human nervous system, the mechanisms behind a range of illnesses, and the treatments that patients receive
  • You will then learn about motor neurone disease, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s and multiple sclerosis – how they occur, how they affect patients, and how they are studied by researchers
  • As you progress, you will focus more on the complex molecular and cellular mechanisms behind neurodegeneration, and how discoveries in the laboratory are translated into treatments
