Neuroanatomy Made Simple: The Brain and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (Live)
Sunday, May 19, 2024 - 10-11am (EDT)
Join us for this enlightening course series on Neuroanatomy Made Simple. As research reveals the fascinating changes that occur in the brain during and after therapy, understanding neuroanatomy becomes essential for all clinicians. We know that therapies like CBT trigger significant brain activations in the frontal lobes and enhance connectivity between the amygdala and frontal regions. The precentral gyrus, precuneus, and insula also undergo changes. However, comprehending these findings is crucial to harnessing their potential. The Neuroanatomy Made Simple course series aims to help clinicians empower themselves with a comprehensive understanding of brain changes facilitated by therapies like CBT or others.
Who Should Attend?
This topic is tailored for all clinicians, including social workers, physicians, nurse practitioners, therapists, psychologists, nurses, and health coaches. Whether you have a background in psychology or medicine, this course will enrich your knowledge of neuroanatomy and its relevance to patient care.
Attendees will earn CE credits upon completing the course.
