Anatomy – Structures of the Brain and Mind
The brain is probably not the most complex object in the universe. But here on our little planet, it is: even the smallest movement is based on the activity of numerous regions and requires a delicate balance of mutual inhibition and excitation. Memory is an almost inevitable consequence of excited sensory cells, and our mind... how complex must a structure be to accommodate us as individuals? Nevertheless, some researchers think exactly that: that the mind is what brains do.
Yet we perceive the difference between ourselves and this brownish-gray mass as striking: is that what we are supposed to be? But there are structures that control our emotions. There are those that preserve our biography. And, of course, those that keep us alive.
Describing the regions and structures of the brain is the task of anatomy. Writing about anatomy, on the other hand, is a difficult task. We have therefore devoted our articles to the big picture, but always paid attention to details worth telling. For example, when Helmut Wicht describes the susceptibility of the chest to “ethyl toxic insult.” Or when Tanja Krämer examines the limbic system after historical errors.
Read on, these articles are about you. Quite directly.
