Course Objectives 
1Describe the basic terminology about the nervous system and sensory organs,
2Describe basic information about the nervous system (the concept of neurons, their types, glia, impulse, innervation, synapse, receptor, tractus, ganglion, axon, dendrite and conduction etc.), explain parts of the nervous system, nervous system feeding, membranes and CSF circulation,
3Describe the anatomical structures of the eye and the ear, and name them on the model and cadaver,
4Define the external sensory impulses, the pathways of conducting the signals and their importance,
5Explain the central and peripheral nervous system, autonomic nervous system, list their parts as well as name them on the model and cadaver,
6Describe the histological structure of medulla spinalis, cerebrum and cerebellum,
7Identify the histology of brain membranes and cerebrospinal fluid under microscope,
8Explain the development of the nervous system and understand the importance of the congenital anomalies of the brain,
