Instead of studying mental illness , positive neuroscientists focus on valued cognitive qualities that serve to enrich personal life and or society.

  1. Systems neuroscience

    Systems neuroscience is a subdiscipline of neuroscience and systems biology that studies the function of neural circuits and systems. It is an umbrella term, encompassing a number of areas of study concerned with how neuron nerve cells behave when connected together to form neural networks . At this level of analysis, neuroscientists study how different neural circuits analyze sensory information, form perceptions of the external world, make decisions, and execute movements. Researchers in systems neuroscience are concerned with the relation between molecular neuroscience molecular and cellular neuroscience cellular approaches to understanding brain structure and function, as well as with the study of high level mental functions such as cognitive linguistics language , memory , and Consciousness Cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience self awareness which are the purview of behavioral neuroscience behavioral and cognitive neuroscience cognitive neuroscience . Systems neuroscientists typically employ techniques for understanding networks of neurons while they function in vivo e.g. electrophysiology single or multi electrode recording , in vivo imaging, fMRI, PET . The term is commonly used in an educational framework a common sequence of graduate school neuroscience courses consists of cellular molecular neuroscience for the first semester, then systems neuroscience for the second semester. It is also sometimes used to distinguish a subdivision within a neuroscience department at an academic institution.

    Molecular neuroscience is a branch of neuroscience that examines the biology of the nervous system with molecular biology , molecular genetics , protein chemistry and related methodologies. ref Cite web last first authorlink coauthors title To the student Molecular neuroscience is the youngest of the major neuroscience subdisciplines, having been born a mere 15 years ago work publisher date url http www.cellbio.wustl.edu faculty huettner MOLNEUR.htm doi accessdate 2008 12 26 ref Molecular biology studies how deoxyribonucleic acid DNA forms ribonucleic acid RNA which makes protein. When molecular biology is studied to gain understanding of the nervous system , then this is the basis of molecular neuroscience. Molecular neuroscience studies ion channels, receptors, enzymes to understand neural function. Ionotropic receptors, metabotropic receptors, molecular anatomy, nervous system, neurogentive disease and molecular mechanismsneurotransmitter release, receptor cloning, signal transduction mechanisms, synaptic plasticity response, and voltage gated ion channels are a few of the fields studied by molecular neuroscientists. ref Cite book last Revest first Patricia editor others title Molecular Neuroscience url http books.google.com ?id Ek4Gq5jmQM4C&pg RA1 PA21&lpg RA1 PA21&dq 22Molecular neuroscience 22 definition format digitised by google books online accessdate 2008 12 26 year 1998 month publisher Taylor & Francis location language isbn 1859962505, 9781859962503 first2 Alan ,lastn Longstaff ref Major Topics Empty section date July 2010 Stem cells and related controversies Empty section date July 2010 See also Portal Neuroscience Acetylcholine receptor Agrin Arc protein Arc Beta amyloid Chakragati mouse Cys loop receptors DAB1 Fruitless gene GAB2 Glutamate carboxypeptidase II Glutamate decarboxylase HAR1F Ionotropic effect Ligand gated ion channel Memory RNA Molecular cellular ...

  1. Neuroscience and intelligence

    , Los Angeles School of Medicine publisher Nature Publishing Group, Volume 5 DEFAULTSORT Neuroscience ...Human intelligence Neuroscience and intelligence concerns the various neurological factors that may be responsible for the variation of intelligence within a species or between different species. Much of the work in this field is concerned with the variation in human intelligence, but other intelligent species such as the non human primates , cetaceans & Rats Intelligence rodents are also of interest. The basic mechanisms by which the brain produces complex phenomena such as consciousness and intelligence are still poorly understood. ref name deary cite journal last Deary year 2000 url http www.psycnet.org journals law 6 1 180.pdf title Testing Versus Understanding Human Intelligence ref The research into the neuroscience of intelligence has involved indirect approaches, such as searching for correlations between psychometric test scores and variables associated with the anatomy and physiology of the brain. Historically, research was conducted on non human animals or on postmortem brains as well as on skulls Craniometry . More recent studies have involved non invasive techniques such as MRI scans as they can be conducted on living subjects. MRI scans can be used to measure the size of various structures within the brain, or they can be used to detect areas of the brain that are active when subjects perform certain mental tasks. Anatomy Some of the anatomical variables that have been studied in association with psychometric test scores include total brain volume, the size and shape of the frontal lobes, the amount of grey and white matter, and the overall thickness of the cortex ...
