    My previous self-statement for New College proposed a Neuroscience major with added components of behavior and psychology; however, my studies ended up taking me more in the direction of behavior and theory than planned. I still feel as though a proficient understanding in neurobiology was necessary and helpful in understanding and participating in my upper-level, non-biology courses. I used the basic major requirement for a Neuroscience/ Behavioral Biology degree at nearby institutions such as…

    According to Solso (2008), artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science that uses programs to enhance cognitive functions. Pattern-recognition uses previous experience to identify a pattern accurately. Pattern-recognition through artificial intelligence is an area being explored at an extraordinary rate. Through the use of experiments using mouse brains and three data sets that consider neural networking for pattern recognition is not so far away. In the study presented by Zeng…
