Mathematical Neuroscience and The Spirit

[oanghelidi]

When conducting a scientific experiment, one follows where the evidence leads. One does not make baseless assumption based on what they believe and want to the evidence to say.

I find it interesting that when it comes to consciousness very few experiments have been done. All the scientists are only making hypotheses which is basically creating theoretical models.

I share your viewpoint. I find that way too many researchers are doing that. It is very hard to sift for the truth through the tons of invalid assumptions and false hypotheses. That is exactly why neuroscience is the only field where the basis of the neural code of the brain, has not been understood.

I mean: the neural code is the most basic stuff. Without it you have nothing. You don't know how memories are formed and stored, you don't know how to repair disease, you don't know what sleep is for, why the dual hemisphere is in there, and the list goes on and on...
