Something you want to know about me?

 

      “As modern-day neuroscience tells us, we are never in touch with the present, because neural information-processing itself takes time. Signals take time to travel from your sensory organs along the multiple neuronal pathways in your body to your brain, and they take time to be processed and transformed into objects, scenes, and complex situations. So, strictly speaking, what you are experiencing as the present moment is actually the past.”

— Thomas Metzinger

 (German philosopher with major research interests in the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of science of neuroscience, and neuroethics).

      

Welcome to all of you to my blog What's great about NeuroScience!

    Self-study is as important as paying attention in class. Complex topics, like talking about neuroscience, require somewhat more dynamic and interactive learning methods, and less rigid and lonely. Don't you think?

If you do, then we have something in common.

I’m Yeinis Carrillo, I have a degree in English from the National University of Panama and I will be in charge of teaching and reinforcing your knowledge of Sciences, especially neuronal medicine, in English. I am in favor of teaching-learning using interactive technology, so we will do many activities with it.

 

I hope we get along well with this course.
