Cognitive Neuroscience - Current Perspectives And Approaches Vivek Misra
Cognitive neuroscience is an academic field concerned with the scientific study of biological substrates underlying cognition, with a specific focus on the neural substrates of mental processes. It addresses the questions of how psychological/cognitive functions are produced by neural circuits in the brain.
In current slides, I tried to cover History, Basic Concepts and Research Methods currently used in cognitive neuroscience research.

lecture 4 from a college level introduction to psychology course taught Fall 2011 by Brian J. Piper, Ph.D. (psy391@gmail.com) at Willamette University, includes about 15 major brain areas, anatomical terminology, brain imaging procedures (CT, MRI, EEG, PET)
Instincts are goal-directed and innate patterns of behavior that are not the result of learning or experience. For example,
In humans
The rooting reflex as is the suckling reflex (a reflex in which babies begin sucking when a finger or nipple places pressure on the roof of their mouth,)
The Moro reflex (a startle reaction seen in babies less than 6 months of age) and
The Babkin reflex (a reflex in which babies open their mouths and flex their arms in response to rubbing the palms of their hands.)
Birds have an innate need to build a nest or migrate during the winter.
In animals example may be
A dog shaking after it gets wet,
A sea turtle seeking out the ocean after hatching
All of these behaviors occur naturally and automatically. They do not need to be learned in order to be displayed.

BRAIN MACHINE INTERFACE SYSTEM FOR PERSON WITH QUADRIPLEGIA DISEASEEditor IJCATR
Brain Machine Interface (BMI) system is very
helpful technique for the disabled and handicapped
person to express their emotion and feeling to someone
else with the help of EEG Signals coming out of our
brain. As we know that, the human brain is made up of
billions of interconnected neurons about the size of a
pinhead. As neurons interact with each other, patterns
manifest as singular thoughts such as a math calculation.
As a by-product, every interaction between neurons
creates a miniscule electrical discharge, measurable by
EEG (electroencephalogram) machines. This system
enables people with severe motor disabilities to send
command to electronic devices by help of their brain
waves. These signals can be used to control any
electronic devices like mouse cursor of the computer, a
wheel chair, a robotic arm etc. The research in this area of
BCI system (or BMI) uses the sequence of 256 channel
EEG data for the analysis of the EEG signals coming out
of our brain by using tradition gel based multi sensor
system, which is very bulky and not convenient to use in
real time application. So this particular work proposes a
convenient system to analyze the EEG signals, which
uses few dry sensors as compared to the tradition gel
based multi sensor system with wireless transmission
technique for capturing the brain wave patterns and
utilizing them for their application. The goal of this
research is to improve quality of life for those with severe
disabilities.
DMIT Studio is an initiative towards enhancing the learning and education processes with the sole objective of bringing a meaningful transformation to every human life by exploring the true potential of their brain. The company is a prominent player in the arena and has gathered an undisputed reputation over the years by helping people to enhance their inherent talents holistically.
Some experts feel that your baby already has his work cut out, growing and developing inside you. There's no evidence that exposing your baby to classical music, poetry or intellectual conversation will make him more intelligent or help him to develop highbrow tastes.
The ultimate aim of our online Divine Spiritual Pregnancy Live classes is to give birth to a well cultured, virtuous, majestic, vigorous, healthy, beautiful and extremely intelligent child. Although many couples are capable of bearing child but mere giving birth to a child should not be the only aim. The child has to be unique, unrivalled, noble, extremely talented and enriched with all the good human qualities.
But is it size or is it neurons that we need to measure? Is it weight or circumference? Should encephalization quotients use total body weight or lean body mass? Should we correct for body size at all? How do you measure intelligence?
In 2005, psychologist Michael McDaniel evaluated studies that used brain-imaging and standard intelligence tests and found that unequivocally, bigger brains correlated with smarter people [source: McDaniel ].
