Introduction: The seat of our identity

Introduction: The seat of our identity

The brain is the seat of our identity. Our thoughts, feelings, desires, decisions. The agony and the ecstasy. But can we harness the brain’s powers to work for us, or maybe we are slaves to our own brain’s mechanics? The story of two people will reveal the confusing interplay between ‘us’ and ‘our brain’. And how much of our behavior is controlled by the 3 pounds between our ears.

How do little cells in our brain code all our thoughts, feelings, decisions, and ideas? And how abstract notions such as ‘unicorns’ or ‘democracy’ turn into concrete epistemic pieces of information using the building blocks of thought?

Brain Functions: How memory works

Brain Functions: How memory works

How are functions mapped into brain structures? Specifically, how are memories formed in our brain? Why are memories in our brain different than files on a computer? Why our new understanding of memories mean “we should not believe everything we think”? How our understanding of the memory functions explain why psychotherapy works? Can we change other people’s memories? Can someone change our memories and make us believe things that are not true? What does our new understanding of brain functions teache us about the reliability of our memories? And what does it say about the challenge of relying on eye-witness testimonies. How studies of cab drivers tell us about the possibility of improving our memory, and how can we all improve our memory ‘overnight’. Finally, can we copy memories from one brain to another, slow the decay of memories or even download memories outside of a brain?
