An unlikely bunch of consciousness researchers are actually physicists, and their numbers are increasing. These physicists have not necessarily teamed up with biologists at all. So what has physics got to do with the brain and consciousness? Perhaps one could say that it all started with Einstein's theory of relativity.

THE QUANTUM MIND

by moreno | in Education > College and University

Quantum behaviour just might be weird enough to provide a complete science of consciousness. It is worth stating at this point that quantum mechanics is one of the most successful scientific models we have ever had, and is responsible for much of our modern technological world of PCs and mobile phones.
The first approach to consciousness

Consciousness can be described according to reductionist classical laws and there is no need to bring something weird like quantum mechanics into it, or worse still, 'mystical life forces' in order explain the inner experience.
Tranporter three

. Only instead of one pitch, they just have one facial expression. And Statham’s scowl is the pitching equivalent to Mariano Rivera’s fastball. I think we all know exactly what we’re going to get from the guy and he rarely fails to deliver. So no, there was nothing extraordinary about his scowl in Transporter effing 3.
Knowing is the best

This is a movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat. There is a delicious slow burn quality permeating each frame. You are only given what you need to know, and even then it is barely enough.
Abuse Of Internet Access At Work

Clearly this issue is going to come up more and more as we move into the next century. Be prepared beforehand, so you don’t have to make up rules as you go along. The “seat of the pants” approach is far more likely to provoke grievances and legal problem.
management for you

While fear as a management style can accomplish impressive short-term results, the long term consequences can be devastating. With demand high and supply short for NPs and PAs, no manager can afford to alienate other clinicians.
Surviving Scientific Conferences

One of the fun things about working in research science is the scientific meeting. You know scientific meetings, lots of free tea and coffee, buffet lunches, an evening of free booze
A Question of Taste

If you've never thought about all those chemical reactions taking place every time you cook food, here is a little something to whet your appetite. It's a mere million years since human beings began to apply fire to a variety of objects which had, for eons, been eaten raw.
The difference between boys and girls

by moreno | in Education > General

the single-minded, goal oriented approach of the boys would benefit from short lessons with well defined individual goals whereas the girls may gain more from an ongoing thread running through a number of lessons with plenty of discussion and coursework.
