Explore the four chapters
NEUROLOGY UNIT 1 · 4 CHAPTERS
01How is the nervous system organized?From neurons and glia to the sensory–motor pathway02Why do lesions produce different motor and sensory findings?UMN/LMN patterns and essential tract localization03What do cortex, cerebellum and basal ganglia contribute?Relate movement and cognitive findings to connected networks04What can neuroplasticity explain about recovery?Link meaningful practice to recovery, compensation and learningHow to study: Read one question-led chapter, explain its clinical connection in your own words, then revisit the reasoning case. The expanded class-notes companion will provide more complete comparisons, original worksheets and detailed explanations after editorial review.
Educational notes developed from original PT-school lectures. Older material should be compared with your own notes and the latest research and clinical guidance. Sources remain cited in each chapter.
