Brain

Reading Literature The brain is one of the most complex organs in the human body. Until recently, scientists have known very little about how the brain works. With today’s technology scientists have been able to figure out how the brain works; through this research, they have found that the brain is affected by reading in a peculiar way. Most actions activate a specific part of the brain; for example, listening to music will activate the part of the auditory region of the brain. According to…

neurological brain abnormalities in individuals with schizophrenia. For example; robust abnormalities elevated in striatal dopamine activity and prefrontal cortical dysfunctions (Fusar-Poli, 2009). Other abnormalities include white matter in the right superior frontal gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, bilateral parahippocampal gyrus, adjacent to the right caudate head, right thalamus, left insula, left the lentiform nucleus, left fusiform gyrus, and bilateral claustrum (Antonius, 2011). These…

The research was done to how on what serotonin actually does in the brain and what it has to do with depression. A mouse brain was used because it is quite similar to human brain and a working mouse brain is easier to access than a working human brain. Mouse models were genetically modified to have varying levels in serotonin availability and the effects these differences had on their neurogenesis and overall…

In his recent article "Making a Brain Map that We Can Use", Alva Noë argues that cell-by-cell mapping of human brain is inefficient, if not impossible. He builds this claim by an effective use of analogies, references to scientific data and allusions to modern literature employed to persuade the reader. Noë starts the article off by recalling how he started pondering the question of brain-mapping having read a piece about the neuroscientist Sebastian Seung who is trying to acquire deeper…

Topic: Brain to Brain Interface Statement: Technology is growing worldwide. If it keeps on growing this way our generation’s technology will be nothing compared to the upcoming generation. Technology is improving from time to time such as: we went from keypad phones to touch-screen phones also we went from regular time telling watches to smart watches. The technology which interests me the most is the brain to brain interfaces. Brain to Brain interfaces is a direct communication from one brain…

biological model of viewing human behavior believes that one will need a full view of a person’s thoughts, behaviors, and emotions which will include their biological make-up to understand a person’s actions. The theorist would to be able to see how the brain processes information. In the case of my co-worker, a theorist would need to know what biological influences were presented to this person for them to behave, think, and feel the way that they…

Brain Nuclear Scan Nuclear Brain scanning is a type of nuclear imaging test, which means it uses a radioactive substance and a special camera to create a 3-D pictures. While image tests such as x-rays can show what the structure inside your body looks like, a Nuclear scan produces images that show how the organs work. The reason I choice nuclear brain scanning, do to the fact my step mom has Epilepsy that she has acquired from a brain disorder from damage in the temporal lobe area. She…
