  • Top 10 Strange Phenomena of the Mind  By : Associate Editor
    The mind is a wonderful thing - there is so much about it which remains a mystery to this day. Science is able to describe strange phenomena, but can not account for their origins. While most of us are familiar with one or two on this list, many others are mostly unknown outside of the psychological realm. This is a list of the top ten strange mental phenomena.
  • Why Time Seems to Slow Down in Emergencies  By : Associate Editor
    This warping of time apparently does not result from the brain speeding up from adrenaline when in danger. Instead, this feeling seems to be an illusion, scientists now find.
  • 10 Habits of Highly Effective Brains  By : Aaron Newcolm
    Newsweek's Sharon Begley recently wrote that "With the nation's 78 million baby boomers approaching the age of those dreaded "where did I leave my keys?" moments, it's no wonder the market for computer-based brain training has shot up from essentially zero in 2005 to $80 million this year, according to the consulting firm SharpBrains."
  • I Was a Neuroscience Guinea Pig: How Scientists Scrambled My Brain  By : Associate Editor
    By Lisa Katayama - Wired Magazine
    I feel like the hoodlum Alex in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange: My head is held steady by a chin strap, while two technicians grease my scalp with conductive gel and slip on a cap bristling with electrodes.

    I'm about to have my brain scrambled -- electrically -- in the name of medical science. Scientists are going to knock out regions of my brain while I perform a memory test.
  • The Spiritual Brain: A Neuroscientist's Case for the Existence of the Soul  By : Bill Ritzer
    Science’s biggest mystery is the nature of consciousness. It is not that we possess bad or imperfect theories of human awareness; we simply have no such theories at all. About all we know about consciousness is that it has something to do with the head, rather than the foot. — Physicist Nick Herbert
  • Don’t blame your brain for what society makes you  By : Moisha Israel
    The citizens of Karachi are the way they are, not because there’s something wrong with our collective brains. Our lack of respect for punctuality, and the general apathy, etc., are more a result of social conditioning than neurological imbalances or imperfections, said Dr Saad Shafqat Tuesday during a session on the human brain organised as part of The Second Floor’s (t2f) monthly Science ka Adda series.
  • The five biggest neuroscience developments of the year.  By : Bill Ritzer
    The human brain has spent its evolutionary history learning about everything else in the world. Since last summer, it has learned quite a bit about itself. It has discovered lots of things about female sexuality, incest, psychopaths, IQ, brain death, addiction, compulsive buying, and how to remotely control animals through cranial implants. But five major trends and breakthroughs stand out. Here they are, with links to related news items and columns.
  • Can the suspect tell his story backwards? If not, he's lying  By : Assistant Editor
    Gene Hunt, the copper from the TV series Life on Mars who batters crooks into submission in the interview room, may not approve. But a cunning new method of dragging the truth from criminals may be on the horizon, thanks to research by university psychologists.
  • Virtual world sharpens mind-control  By : Colm Ekhart
    A simulated world that can be explored simply by thinking about putting one foot in front of the other might offer new rehabilitation possibilities for disabled patients.
    This is the vision behind a project that connects a brain-computer interface (BCI) to an immersive virtual world.
  • 10 Mind-Boggling Psychiatric Treatments  By : Associate Editor
    Nobody ever claimed a visit to the doctor was a pleasant way to pass the time. But if you’re timid about diving onto a psychiatrist’s couch or paranoid about popping pills, remember: It could be worse. Like getting-a-hole-drilled-into-your-skull worse. Or having-a-doctor-infect-you-with-malaria-to-cure-you worse. Think of it this way. After finding out what’s not going to happen to you, that couch is going to start looking a lot more comfortable.
  • How to Wire Your Brain for Religious Ecstas  By : Associate Editor
    Eight years ago, I flew to Laurentian University in Midwestern Canada to test a gadget that some journalists called the "God machine." The device consisted of computer-controlled solenoids that fit over the skull and stimulate the brain with electromagnetic pulses. Its inventor, neuroscientist Michael Persinger, claimed that it could induce mystical experiences, including, as Wired magazine put it, visions of "Jesus, the Virgin Mary, Mohammed, the Sky Spirit."
  • The Human Brain: Marvel or Mess?  By : Assistant Editor
    Let others rhapsodize about the elegant design and astounding complexity of the human brain—the most complicated, most sophisticated entity in the known universe, as they say. David Linden, a professor of neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University, doesn't see it that way. To him, the brain is a "cobbled-together mess."
  • Manufacturing belief  By : Associate Editor
    The origin of religion is in our heads, explains developmental biologist Lewis Wolpert. First we figured out how to make tools, then created a supernatural being.
    By Steve Paulson of Salon Magazine
  • Brain Chip Tested in Monkeys May Help Humans With Movement Disorders  By : Article Brain Editor
    A new brain chip under development established new connections in the brains of monkeys in a region that controls movement. Scientists hope to eventually make a version that could help humans with movement disorders.
