🫀🔍 AIM OSPE/OSCE Lab — Neuroscience 1-A Module

About Course

AIM Neuroscience 1-A Module is a structured exam-focused course designed to help 2nd year MBBS students master the basic organization of the nervous system, brain, cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem, medulla, spinal cord, and major neural pathways.

Students will learn neuroanatomy, histology, functional pathways, sensory and motor control, clinical correlations, OSPE/OSCE-oriented practical preparation, KMU-style MCQs, and viva-focused revision for strong conceptual and clinical exam performance.
