Visualizing the Brain's Hardware
Thursday, January 9, 2014
The brain doesn’t work like a piano, where activating one neuron automatically contracts one muscle somewhere in the body. The vast range of motions possible for a body require control by a complicated neural code, one that can’t possibly be deduced from the activity of a single neuron.
Lost Freshwater May Double Climate Change Effects on Agriculture
