Introduction to the Program

Thanks to this Postgraduate certificate you will be able to know in detail the essential foundations of Neuroanatomy”

Solid knowledge in neuroanatomy has a positive influence when it comes to achieving optimal results in diagnosis and in the application of truly effective treatments in patients with neurological pathologies. The latest information in this field is therefore essential for medical professionals who wish to be aware of the latest advances in this specialty. That is why this Postgraduate certificate was created, in which students, thanks to a teaching team with extensive experience, will achieve the renewal of their knowledge in the field of neuroanatomy.

Professionals are facing a program that is taught exclusively online, which will allow them to reconcile their work and/or personal responsibilities with quality teaching. This program will be enriched through a syllabus with a theoretical-practical focus on the conformation of the central nervous system (CNS) and neurons, the different types of synapses and neurotransmitters. Besides, it will delve into neuroendocrinology and neuroimmunology, with special emphasis on the characteristics of the CNS at different stages: from childhood to adolescence and until old age.

The simulations of clinical cases provided by the specialized teaching staff will be of great help to the professional, since through them they will be able to approach to a reality that can be useful in your daily practice. An excellent opportunity for professionals who want to update their knowledge with content that is characterized by using the latest technology in education. You will have summaries, detailed videos, interactive diagrams or specialized readings available from the very start. Having the entire study plan from the beginning will facilitate the distribution of the study load, always according to the needs of the students themselves. A program according to current educational times and that is at the forefront.

Postgraduate Certificate in Principles of Neuroanatomy

Thanks to neuroanatomy it is possible to study the structure of the nervous system. Understanding its principles is essential to understanding how the brain and nerves function in communication and control of the body. If you want to specialize in this important health field, you've come to the right place. The Postgraduate Certificate in Principles of Neuroanatomy, created by TECH Global University, will provide you with the necessary basis to understand this enigmatic organ. Here, we propose an entirely virtual tour through various modules ranging from the organization of the central and peripheral nervous system, to its structures: cerebral hemispheres, cerebral lobes, cerebral sulci and gyri, motor or sensory areas and the limbic system.

Gain knowledge about the principles of neuroanatomy
