Have you ever wondered “why does my brain work this way”? Surprisingly enough, even neuroscientists can’t seem to wrap their brains around this question! The brain is arguably one of the most important, intriguing, and equally perplexing organs of our body. Despite the years of progress in modern neuroscience, there are quite a few perplexing issues that persist in our understanding of the brain. As Albert Einstein famously said, “As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it,” and Professor Vincent Cheung, who has years of expertise studying neuroscientific patterns will highlight the current blindspots in this field. Understanding our own brain gives us the opportunity to rebirth our own behaviour and our own personalities. But first, we might have to rebirth our approach to neuroscientific study! Let’s see how Professor Cheung elaborates on the modern issues about understanding the brain. We hope you enjoy this mind-boggling talk!
