We will focus on diagnosing and treatment from various perspectives: anatomy/MRI; Neurofysiology, epidemiology/ statistics and fysics. How is the problem diagnosed, how specific is a diagnose and how certain? To answer such questions, this module provides basic knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the neural system  How is the brain structured and how does it function? In addition, several techniques to investigate the neural system are introduced, like EEG, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electromyography (EMG). Active brain cells induce electromagnetic (EM) fields that can be measured. This module therefore covers the basic physics of EM fields, as summarized in Maxwell’s laws. To determine whether observed EEG differences can be applied in diagnostic tools, basic techniques from statistics and epidemiology are introduced for study design, and to analyze the results. Finally, relevant ethical considerations are discussed. These themes are combined in the project, which focusses on diagnosis and treatment of a patients neurological problem, and will culminate in a poster presentation..
