V S Ramachandran on The neurons that shaped civilization

Hi,

Fascinating world of neuroscience.

Neuroscientist Vilayanur Ramachandran outlines the fascinating functions of mirror neurons. Only recently discovered, these neurons allow us to learn complex social behaviours, some of which formed the foundations of human civilization as we know it.



We are all interconnected by our neuron-created consciousness says Dr Ramachandran.

Cheers
