Introduction to Neuroanatomy - Learn the Basics

Dive into a comprehensive 32-minute video lecture on the fundamentals of neuroanatomy. Explore the distinctions between motor (efferent) and sensory (afferent) nerve fibers, and gain a thorough understanding of the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). Learn about the brain, spinal cord, 12 cranial nerves, and 31 spinal nerves. Discover the intricacies of somatic, autonomic, sympathetic, and parasympathetic nervous systems, as well as the enteric nervous system. Examine the structure of myelinated and unmyelinated fibers, white matter, and gray ramus. Delve into the anatomy of nuclei, ganglia, tracts, nerves, lemnisci, fasciculi, funiculi, commissures, and pathways. Study the divisions of the brain, including the forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain, and brain stem. Investigate the tongue's innervation and various types of efferent and afferent systems. Conclude with an overview of special senses, including vision, smell, and taste, providing a solid foundation in neuroanatomy.
