INSIDE THE BRAIN – part 2: From Evolution to the Neurone
🧠 From Evolution to the Neurone
How did the brain architecture become functionally capable of sustaining life?
The answer begins long before thought, memory or emotion.
It begins in the very evolutionary history of the nervous system.
The brain is a unique and non-transferable organ, and each characteristic acquired throughout evolution has been shaping this singular architecture, capable of sustaining not only survival, but the very experience of existing.

INSIDE THE BRAIN (part 1): Human Brain Anatomy, Lobes and Functions
🧠 Inside the Brain
There is something almost paradoxical about the human brain: it is the organ that allows us to understand the world and, at the same time, the very organ we are trying to understand.
Everything we call the “self” passes through it.
In other words: what sustains our identity is also, paradoxically, profoundly vulnerable.
And perhaps this is yet another reminder of how the brain is, at the same time, sophisticated, vulnerable and biologically singular.
