| Plumbing the depths of the human brain. Examining it from within, analysing thought itself. Tracing the electrical impulses back through the maze of pathways to the source. Solving the mysteries of the personality, dreams, imagination. Quantifying the conscious with equations, without losing sight of what the conscious is in effect: a giant mirror that sometimes seems as vast as the universe it observes. Dissecting the ego, human nature itself, without getting lost in mysticism. Maintaining an analytical, scientific approach. That is the job of the neurobiologist. That is the job of Rita Levi Montalcini, who, for her work on the functioning of the human brain, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine in 1986. |
