cats with split brain experiment this had similar results to Gazzaniga. “If the sensory inputs are lateralized to one or the other hemisphere‚ the section of these commissures in cats and monkeys (split-brain) leaves the hemisphere functionally disconnected in such a way that they have independent process of learning and memory” (Mascetti p. 913). The experiment had to do with cats and how the split-brain can affect their learning and memory style by switching which side of the brain they are using

trimethylxanthine‚ a naturally occurring chemical stimulant. The formula for caffeine is C8H10N4O2. It shares several traits with famous drugs like amphetamines‚ cocaine and heroin. It uses the same biochemical mechanisms as these drugs to stimulate brain function. Caffeine has its benefits‚ but it also has several draw backs. In this paper‚ we will explore these and come up with an answer to “is it worth it?” Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is an energy-bearing molecule found in all living cells. ATP

pathway of the brain‚ implicated in reward‚ motivation‚ and memory. More specifically‚ the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and nucleus accumbens are two regions that directly mediate addiction. The VTA‚ activated by addictive substances‚ is the site of dopaminergic neurons that project onto the nucleus accumbens in the ventral striatum (Adinoff‚ 2004). Therefore‚ studies on addiction usually center around these regions to explore the genetic and neurobiological basis underlying this chronic brain disease.

BRAIN CONTROLLED ARTIFICIAL LEGS ABSTRACT: This paper describes a brain controlled robotic leg which is designed to perform the normal operations of a human leg. After implanting this leg in a human‚ the leg can be controlled with the help of user’s brain signals alone. This leg behaves similar to a normal human leg and it can perform operation like walking‚ running‚ climbing stairs etc. The entire system is controlled with the help of advanced microcontrollers and digital signal processors.
