Computational neuroscience

I’ve never been able to explain my major in neuroscience without the someone asking me, “Oh, so you’re going to study diseases and disorders, like Autism and Alzheimer’s?” I’ve now realized that it isn’t their fault at all. I mean, that’s all we people in the neuroscience field ever really talk about anyway. It’s basically like telling a construction worker, “Oh, so you’re going to destroy buildings and use explosives?” The study of neuroscience isn’t merely focused on the disorders and…

Besides these two degrees, he also received postdoctoral from University of Texas Medical school, Montreal Neurological Institute, and McGill University. Dr.Mario Beauregard has done numerous researches. The research that has made him stand out from all other neuroscientists was the 2007 research,…

Back in the privacy of their dorm room, Booker could no longer contain his anger, and his voice exploded in the still, silent room. “Damn it, Hanson, what the FUCK were you thinking? Hitting McCarter is NOT going to help us with our case, especially when he gave you a pass ‘cause of your injuries. He’s probably as suspicious as hell now! You could have blown our cover!” Angry at himself for losing his temper with McCarter, Tom took his frustration out on Booker. “I DON’T KNOW WHY I DID…

Jonas could feel it. He did not know what he felt exactly, he just felt it. He knew his feet were cold and numb. He knew he was dirty and disheveled. He definitely knew he was starving, but this. This was new. This was a different type of gnawing. A rougher type. He felt it whenever he wanted to just lie down and sleep forever. Whenever he began to give up. It was a feeling only to be described as a longing. A longing for Elsewhere. A longing for warmth. A longing for what he knew was coming.…

Introduction Influences of trauma can affect the child’s development by imposing on neural cognitive function, attachment, emotional, spiritual development and the list can go on. The first thing that must be understood is what is trauma and what does it look like to a child? Trauma is an event that occurs abruptly and harmful. According to American Psychological Association (2015), “Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape or natural disaster.” Looking at a…

The documentary of Genie: Secret of the Wild Child described the inhumane living conditions that Genie experienced for her first 13 years of life. She had been severely neglected by her parents, specially her dad who obligated the mom and the rest of the family to ignore Genie for several years. Consequently, she lived in a room with the windows closed; she was incarcerated and strapped to a potty chair. Furthermore, she was not given any nutritious food for her to acquire the proper nutrients…

When it comes to the argument of whether technology overall benefits this generation or inhibits it, Janna Anderson and Lee Rainie as well as Jennifer Gabriel have created articles that present efficient information on the two standpoints. Anderson, staff member at Elon University, and Rainie, member of the Pew Research Center, examine whether today’s younger generation has been altered from constant technology use in their article entitled “The Future of the Internet,” published in 2012.…

Mindfulness training (MT) is now a heavily researched practice that is seeing a resurgence in western culture. Mindfulness can broadly be defined as a practice in which a person uses techniques to help train the mind to reduce stress and increase awareness. Researchers Farb, Anderson, Bean, McKeon, Mayberg, and Segal are the first to look at a reduction in the expression of sadness through MT by looking at fMRI images of the brain to locate specific regions that have been associated with sadness…
