Course content
Neuroplasticity: habituation, motorics learning, CNS regeneration and functional restitution. Rehabilitation and neuroplasticity: NS development, somatosensoric and autonomous NS. Reflexive motorics and motorics voluntary control: choreography of inhibition mechanism. Motor system: basal ganglia, vestibular and visual NS, cerebellar functions - clinical applications. Neural processes connected with motor function: reflexive movement. Spasticity. Neural processes connected with motor learning. Applications for clinical medicine. Neural processes connected with spatial orientation. Respiratory evolution biology, developmental specifics of respiration in Homo sapiens sapiens. Neural and metabolic processes connected with muscle tension (II). Clinical applications.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Dialogic Lecture (Discussion, Dialog, Brainstorming), Observation, Demonstration, Training in job and motor Skils
Learning outcomes
Pathokinesiology of respiratory disorders, postural disorders, and human locomotion. Pathokinesiological demonstration of emotional changes, motivation, attention. Clinical perspective of (patho)kinesiology of behavioral disorders. Final clinical kinesiology conference.
Upon completion of the course students will be able to put theoretical knowledge to practical use and present their own work to colleagues.
