Period
I SEMESTRE dal Oct 1, 2018 al Jan 25, 2019.
Learning outcomes
The teaching aims at illustrating the neurobiological bases of learning and the motor circuits subtending the execution of goal-directed actions. Through the presentation of a number of cases of diseases affecting the motor domain, the student will acquire knowledge on the main movement disorders. Finally, through the discussion of the latest scientific discoveries on new learning and motor recovery strategies, useful elements will be provided to gain critical thinking. The ultimate goal is to let the students acquire the basic skills to devise alternative ways of motor recovery that can be added to the traditional rehabilitation approaches in order to improve motor skills in different pathological contexts.
Program
The course will be organized into 4 themes:
1 Learning: definition, how it works, the neurobiological mechanisms, investigation methods.
2 Motor: how to learn and consolidate simple and complex movements.
3 Adapted: special situations where you need to relearn gestures.
4 Recent findings and future perspectives.
Teaching methods
Teaching consists of frontal lessons, for a total of 24 hours (3 CFUs). The first lesson will serve to guide students thought the course: information will be provided about the program, the lesson schedule, the reference textbooks, and the exams. In addition, for each topic discussed during the lessons, the reference will be provided to the chapters in which that topic is described. Additional materials will be provided on the e-learning platform of the University.
Throughout the academic year, a student reception service is available, with a weekly fixed schedule.
Suggested textbooks
- NICOLETTI R., BORGHI A.M. Il controllo motorio. Ed. Il Mulino.
- The slides of the lectures will be available on the web page for the Course.
- Bibliographic references to scientific papers published in international journals will be provided.

Examination Methods
The exam consists for all the students of an oral interview to verify not only the theoretical knowledge of the topics dealt with during the lessons but also the logical ability to think about new potential for motor recovery. The ranking of the examination will be expressed in scores of thirty.
