The outer limits of the human brain
Some brains are that little bit more remarkable than others. Why do the most gifted and talented brains stand out from the crowd? Is there anything physical or physiological that sets them apart? Here we take a look at some outstanding grey matter, and ask what brains are like at the outer limits of human achievement.

Mind tricks: Six ways to explore your brain
How does your brain work? Brain imaging, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and similar advanced techniques have given neuroscientists huge insights into this question. Yet studying the brain doesn't have to be such a high-tech enterprise. Simple experiments can still probe the inner workings of the brain, and many of these are easy to set up at home or are available on the internet.

Learning and the Brain
Online video of presentation at SETT Sept. 2006.
We need to better understand how the brain processes information, and how learning mechanisms develop over the individual? lifecycle.
Three main issues are under current scrutiny: literacy, numeracy, lifelong learning, and the role of emotions in learning processes. This involves the participation of international expert networks coordinated by leading institutions from Europe, Japan and the United States.

Greetings Earthling! Welcome to ePsych!
This site is designed to teach about psychological processes in a rich experiential setting. But we don't want to be dull and boring along the way. Cheesy? Sure! Silly? No doubt! Stuffy? Never!!! Asking ridiculous rhetorical questions? Guess I'll plead no contest there!
At this site, you can learn some amazing things about how the mind works. For a quick sample, try:
- The Practice Flicker Applet That shows your eye doesn't see as much as you think!
- The Shepard Tones You know that Esher staircase that always seems to be going up? Now you can hear tones that do the same thing!
Along your journey, you will likely encounter The Bad Guys? one of the nastiest groups of scoundrels ever to plague the intergalactic space lanes. But take heart! Not only do you have the benefit of your courage and strength, you also come armed with one of the most powerful weapons known in the Three Galaxies: The human mind.
