Brain, Mind and Human Identity
Brain function is intimately linked to human identity. Highly evolved cognitive functions differentiate us from non-human species. They rely on complex neural networks, which are fine-tuned throughout life by exposure to specific stimuli, focused training and other interventions. Human identity is constituted by the interplay of cognitive fonctions and culture. Neuroscience contributes to our understanding who we are and is thus of high interest to the general public. Over the last 20 years we have participated in this debate, including with the following interventions:
