Brain stem is considered to be one of the most primitive parts of the brain that is crucial to human survival. As thoroughly explicated by most scholars and anatomist throughout the centuries‚ it regulates the most fundamental physiological activities of the human body which are essential for maintaining and sustaining life. This is how each function is utilized in medical practice to define death through different research and experiments. Brain stem regulates alertness‚ arousal‚ breathing‚ blood

The Blue Brain Project by Serge Achildi The Blue Brain Project is an attempt to create a synthetic brain by reverse-engineering the mammalian brain down to the molecular level. An effort to create the first computer simulation of the entire human brain‚ right down to the molecular level‚ was launched on June of 2005. The hope is that the virtual brain will help shed light on some aspects of human cognition‚ such as perception‚ memory and perhaps even consciousness. The "Blue Brain" project‚ a

Current Issues in Brain Imaging Technology Brain imaging technology has revolutionized the way doctors‚ scientists‚ and researchers are able to see the workings of this highly complex organ. The use of brain imaging techniques allows for discovery without the use of invasive surgical procedures. Now used throughout the globe‚ these techniques have matured dramatically in the last century. With its roots in the early twentieth century using low-tech devices‚ brain imaging has evolved dramatically

Three Components of the Brain Did you know our brain is broken up into 3 major components? Within these components they’re even divided into more sections‚ each with an important job of the body. The brain is the most important organ in our body aside from our heart. To name a few it is what allows us to move‚ to breathe‚ to talk‚ to remember‚ to think!
