Description


This course provides the opportunity for students to understand the potential and limitations of exercise as a tool for clinical rehabilitation in humans with neurological pathologies. Specific information about a range of neuromuscular disorders is provided, and students are encouraged to apply their knowledge to case studies and realistic scenarios in order to develop the scientific and clinical attributes necessary to contribute effectively to a neuromuscular rehabilitation team. This course offers a mixture of traditional and interactive/case study approaches to learning.
