How Neurocomic Gets Into Your Head
The two “go to” occupations for conveying the idea of genius are usually “rocket scientist” and “brain surgeon.”
Only the best minds pursue the mysteries of the outer space beyond our
atmosphere or the inner space between our ears. We all have brains, but
getting our brains to understand themselves seems something reserved
only for the eggiest of eggheads. Two neuroscientists, Drs. Hana Roš and Matteo Farinella, have teamed up to create the educational and entertaining graphic novel Neurocomic.
By turning neurons into trees, the depths of memory into caves, and the
mind’s self-deceptiveness into a haunted castle, Roš and Farinella take
you on a visual and verbal rollercoaster ride into your own brain
in hopes of bringing the non-brain surgeons of the world closer to
cutting through all the scientific jargon and considering the big
questions of brain versus mind, how we remember, and how we become who
we are. A mind trip in every sense of the word, Neurocomic gets into your head to get you into your own head. Please come over to Picture This at Big Think to read more of "How Neurocomic Gets Into Your Head."
