Welcome,
My hope with these posts is to primarily focused around expressing aspects of our brain and mind, whilst also discussing interesting topics that have arisen in this field; However, in reality this blog serves no real purpose, it will not benefit the scientific community, nor can it even be claimed that its accuracy will stand up to the reliability of current research. Its only grounds to exist is for an expression of my personal views and interests, which whilst certainly not being an original venture, will hopefully provide a novel interpretation of the reasons and ways we each experience the world through our brains and through the uniqueness of ourselves. I am currently undertaking a PhD in Computational Neuroscience and my main areas of interest are related to computational methods to investigate cognition and epilepsy.
