'This module covers the information on the neural and endocrine systems required for the MRCPsych exam.
Initially we describe the various structures involved in daily functioning, from arousal to the more complex executive cognitive functions, showing how to locate lesions depending on any deficits in functioning.
We then cover memory and emotions, describing how these develop within the neural and endocrine systems. We also provide essential information about the various hormones involved in hunger, thirst and sexual drives.
This module is free to access for anyone registered with the College as a resident doctor, member, affiliate, Student Associate or Foundation Doctor Associate – just log in with your College details (not OpenAthens) to access the modules.
