NEUROSCIENCE, CONCEPTS AND THEORIES

Abstract

Neuroscience is the multidisciplinary study of the nervous system, covering both its structure and function, from the molecular to the behavioral level. This biologia involves understanding the biological, chemical, physical and psychological aspects of the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. Neuroscience seeks to understand how the nervous system develops, how it functions under normal and pathological conditions, and how it influences behavior, cognition, emotions, and other mental and bodily functions. It is a vast and constantly evolving area, with significant contributions to fields such as medicine, psychology, biology, engineering and computing.
