Neuroscience and neuroscience research domains: Recent past, present and future trends (first part)

Stefano Tognacci

This contribution serves as an invitation to approach the fascinating world of neuroscience, a discipline which until recently was in dialogue and intertwined with other areas of science, particularly those of a humanistic nature. The development includes a brief reflection on the latest procedure, presentation of fairly specialized traits, some technical and scientific aspects which were recently developed and of importance in the recent development of neuroscience, especially cognitive,65 and some other discoveries and possible answers of interest to both the areas. The main objective is to raise awareness and arouse interest so that the reader may ask not as a mere spectator of this new perspective which is now inevitably invading in positive terms many research areas including education and the humanities as well. This contribution, for the complexity and size of some issues and the available space is necessarily and unfortunately incomplete, but it provides a follow up that opens additional interweaving between the two areas.
