Discussion: Foundational Neuroscience As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, it is essential for you to have a strong background in foundational neuroscience. In order to diagnose and treat clients, you must not only understand the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders, but also how medications for these disorders impact the central nervous system. These concepts of foundational neuroscience can be challenging to understand. Therefore, this Discussion is designed to encourage you to think through these concepts, develop a rationale for your thinking, and deepen your understanding by interacting with your colleagues. Learning Objectives Students will: · Analyze the agonist-to-antagonist spectrum of action of psychopharmacologic agents · Compare the actions of g couple proteins to ion gated channels · Analyze the role of epigenetics in pharmacologic action · Analyze the impact of foundational neuroscience on the prescription of medications Learning Resources Note: To access this week’s required library resources, please click on the link to the Course Readings List, found in the Course Materials section of your Syllabus. Required Readings Post a response to each of the following: Include sub headings please. 1. Explain the agonist-to-antagonist spectrum of action of psychopharmacologic agents. 2.
