Neuropsychology and Neurodegenerative Disorders:

The field of neuropsychology investigates how the brain and behavior interact in daily life. This field combines evaluation and intervention techniques and is based on scientific research on how human behavior relates to both healthy and pathological CNS function. Chronic, fatal conditions known as neurodegenerative illnesses involve the slow decline or even death of nerve cells. As a result, dementias—also known as ataxias—or problems with mental or motor coordination develop. The evaluation procedure includes the use of diagnostic tools, patient history, qualitative observation, neuroimaging, and neuropsychological tests.
