Question

1.    Describe neuroscience and explain the importance to the brain...

Answer 1

• Neuroscience is the general scientific study of how the nervous system grows and develops to function as it does. It is mainly concerned with what happens in the brain and the nervous sytem.This processes occur when people have neuro development disorders.
• Neuroscientists focus their research on the understanding of “brain” disorders, injuries, and deficits. For this reason, these scientists must have a solid understanding of how psychological processes relate to the brain’s structures and systems, or on the interrelated and inseparable connections between cognition and brain physiology.
• Increasing understanding of the brain and improved methods to study it will enable scientists to develop treatments for neurodegenerative diseases (such as Alzheimer's disease) and mental illnesses. Research will also help us find out more about normal human behaviour and mental wellbeing, and can help develop artificial intelligence. As well as treating illnesses, research could also lead to better understanding of how we learn, allowing us to optimise our intelligence.
• These developments are likely to provide significant benefits for society and have implications for a diverse range of public policy areas such as health, education, law, and security. However they will also raise major social and ethical issues and raise questions about personality, identity, responsibility, and liberty
