Cognitive Dysfunction in Neurological Disorders

This lecture course provides an in-depth examination of the cognitive dysfunction found in neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, and Schizophrenia. The course focuses on how cognitive impairments relate to neuropsychological models of the specific disease (specifically how these models provide insights into the biological mechanisms underlying the cognitive symptoms) and cognition, more broadly.
