Week 3 Reflection

reflection on week 3

Congrats, you completed week 3!

This week we focused on neuroscience. We looked at how memory and learning work on a neurological level. Then we focused on disorders and the neuroscience behind them. From depression to dementia, we looked at a wide variety of conditions! We hope you leave this week feeling equipped to explain the basic structure and function of the brain. We hope you feel confident in your ability to summarize the clinical features and management strategies for common diseases that impact brain development or function including Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, mood disorders, and autism.

As we head into the final week of this course, we will be focusing on cancer biology, a very prevalent topic in the medical world today. We hope you thoroughly enjoy this next week’s content!

Onto week 4!
