Cognitive Neuroscience Blog Posts
Cognitive neuroscience seems to be a very popular psychology-related subject area for bloggers - there are certainly quite a few blogs specifically writing about cognitive neuroscience (and fMRI, neuroimaging, social neuroscience and related subjects).
We've tried to highlight a handful of them in the box on the right, but there are plenty more out there!
The blog posts below are all tagged in Technorati as being about Cognitive Neuroscience. They may be 'lighter' reading than you're used to, or they may be surprisingly academic and in-depth - it all depends on the individual blogger (or the individual blog post). We hope you find them interesting, informative, and engaging.
We also hope that they'll help you discover some blogs that you'll bookmark to read regularly, whether they're for your education, your continual professional development or for leisure & recreation.

- What is a blog?

Saturday Sanity: Light Your Fire

Here at Mental Health Notes and b5media’s Health & Wellness Channel, it’s become the trend for every week to feel just as busy - if not busier - than the last. I love it, mind you. I just think I need to sit down and seriously re-evaluate my current system of organization. Anyway, on to what went on this week in the world of mental health! Here at Mental Health Notes, I was all over the place. From sharing a few thoughts about LiveJournal to reviewing Google’s top five results for “brai

Whether you’re thinking future spring season fashion or sports, Taiwanese researchers have taken baseball caps to a new level of design. The story below explains the “science of mind” whereby the wireless and portable cap can detect EEG signals and send feedback in real time. Imagine the biofeedback possibilities in schools world wide, when teachers tell students to put on their “thinking caps!!!” Wonders never cease in the Year of the Brain! “http://www.physorg.com/news130152277.html” S

Increasing Brainpower

Increasing Brainpower May 16th, 2008 by Dr. Paul Nussbaum The NY Times recently reported on a new study that showed it is possible to improve brainpower. The study demonstrated that training the brain in particular cognitive or thinking processes actually help to improve those particular processes. This should make sense as the brain is a dynamic system that will respond to environmental input. The resistance to such belief lies in the long held and erroneous position that the human brain is

It's Friday, and I've been saving some special links to mark the occasion. * A 3-D exploration of Picasso's Guernica. Via MeFi. * 7 reasons why sci-fi book series outstay their welcome. * The top twenty-five Batman stories of all time. That Dark Knight Returns only clocked in at #25 may surprise you, but once you know that it's no real shock that Alan Moore takes the #1 slot for The Killing Joke, the story that saw Batgirl shot in the back by the Joker and confined to a wheelchair for life.

Reversing Time By Crossing Your Hands [Developing Intelligence]
posted on Wed, 14 May 2008 13:29:52 -0700
In 2001, Yamamoto and Kitazawa showed that the perception of temporal order can be reversed when subjects cross their hands. Subjects closed their eyes and had their hands mechanically touched in quick succession (with stimuli separated in time by a variable amount - from 1500 ms to 0 ms). Subjects were asked to raise the finger of the hand that was first stimulated. The results showed that subjects were accurate in reporting the temporal order of these stimuli when separated by as little as 70

For a Sharper Brain, Stimulation May 14th, 2008 by Laura Fay AMERICANS may worry about heart disease, stroke and diabetes, but they downright dread Alzheimer’s disease, a recent survey found. For good reason. One in eight adults over 65 is affected by the disease. Those who are spared know they may end up with the burden of caring for a parent or a spouse who is affected. Even though the number of older adults with dementias is rising rapidly, only a few drugs that have been approved to trea
