The Blight of Ersatz Neuroscience

The ‘neuro’prefix is nowadays very fashionable. The growing interest in applying our knowledge of the human brain to different fields has resulted in the development of a number of new practices – some good, some bad, and some just crazy. Join The University of Edinburgh’s Prof Sergio della Sala as he explains how some enthusiastic scientists have over-simplified the findings from neuroscience and over-interpreted the outcome, giving rise to a number of tall tales on how the brain works.
