The aim is a basic introduction to the construction and operation of the human nervous system. Knowledge of the human body, especially about human nervous systém, neurons, neurotransmiters etc. Students should understand the basics of nerve cell activity, synaptic information transfer, they should acquire basic knowledge in the field of human brain structure and function.

Learning outcomes of the course unit The subject acquaints students with the basics of construction and especially with the function of the nervous system of a person. The main focus is on understanding the principles of nervous system function from the level of nerve cells to the level of the brain as the highest nervous headquarters. Psychology students are also acquainted with the continuity of the discipline in clinical practice (eg in the field of psychiatric and neurological disorders, possibilities of influencing the brain, etc.). Everything including the basic Latin terminology, which will be required for the exam and in the future will provide orientation in professional literature, medical
