About You, Illuminated

You, Illuminated is my chance to explore all the fascinating topics in the field of neuroscience, and the broader fields of psychology and behavior.  My research focuses on a very small (but important) piece of the neuroscience pie, but my interests lie far and wide.  I got interested in neuroscience because of its ability to explain what's going on inside our heads.  You, Illuminated provides an excellent forum to muse on the mental process of lying, the merit of 'smart drugs,' and what makes humans so smart.
