Dr. Koeberle completed his Ph.D in Neurosciences at McMaster University in 2001. He then studied under Dr. Mathias Bähr at the University of Göttingen Germany as a postdoctoral fellow. After his final postdoctoral studies under Dr. Lyanne Schlichter (Toronto Western Research Institute) he was hired as an Assistant Professor in the Division of Anatomy. Dr. Koeberle’s research is focused on the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration in the adult central nervous system. Specific focus is placed on traumatic brain injury and stroke (ischemia), through the use of injury models of the visual system. Dr. Koeberle currently teaches neuroanatomy for the Department of Physical Therapy, is the Course Director for the Physician's Assistant Program and contributed in the undergraduate stream at the University of Toronto.

Course Name: The core content of the course is covered in a series of pre-recorded lectures with accompanying lecture notes. Anatomy will be studied from two perspectives:
Course Number:
Course Name: Regional anatomy, where body divisions and their anatomical relations are studied, will be addressed in the anatomy laboratory during the residential portion of the course.
Course Number:
Course Name: Systemic anatomy, in which each organ system is studied as a functional unit, will be addressed during the non-residential portion of the course.
