Contorting reality: the mystery of black holes and wormholes
As a neuroscience major, I hold the (completely unbiased) view that the brain is the single most remarkable object in the universe. Its structure is the culmination of 4 billion years of improbable development, beginning with simple biomolecules and exploding into a dynamic, hyperconnected network whose complexity we’re still trying to decipher today. And it’s not only physically complex, but is crucially and inexplicably linked to something beyond its material constitution: the mind. This — the age-old paradox of the mind-body problem — elevates the brain from the level of inert matter into something that demands more mystery and intrigue.
