Thank you sealhammer :3
Have I ever mentioned to you that when I first saw your user handle on the forum I thought it was in reference to clubbing baby seals

I LOLed in public

Indeed, there are vast regions within science to cover and widen. This is especially true within neuroscience; for an example, the American war on drugs has prompted much reinvestigative research into the side effects, healthy and unhealthy uses, and risk assessment of drugs. Such findings are incredibly important when considering the broad use of drugs in clinical practice and treatment. They are also useful for both shedding light on and confirming underlying neural mechanisms, as well as highlighting related psychosocial issues and why/how drugs are used. Another hot vein of research is consciousness and intelligence/complexity. In particular, the Blue Brain Project (1)(2)(3) is attempting to model a virtual brain from the ground level of neurons and molecular biology to higher-order functions like thought and emotion. It's fascinating stuff, and likely the key to not only clarifying what goes wrong where within mental disorders, but also to constructing true "artificial" intelligence. (I hope we're ready for the latter.)

To properly answer your question: psychology and neuroscience are my college majors, alongside minors in biology and philosophy. I have found that voraciously reading everything has a two-fold benefit: it crystallizes and expands classroom material and makes research easier. Both have opened doors for researching with professors, which is lovely for personal achievement and academic advancement. There is also the rising number of college graduates, increasing graduate-level competition, to consider; mastery and experience are essential. Knowledge is power.

I found it funny to see it in the context of the other ones which I admit I hadn't read before posting.
It was too perfect not to post...the crumbs had to wait. Moleman Se should get more shoutouts!

Thank you for the rep That means a lot!

Yes...at the same time, though, our premonitions are far from infallible, you know.

Nope. My comment was just unnecessary -- i.e., smart-ass.

Thank you, Sir! Haven't "met" you yet. Take care.

[Insert Paladin-X's quote about fish climbing trees here]

I got mad respect for you, too. You seem very informed.

...though I don't remember you ever railing on me.

That's good, 'cause I think you're funny and smart.

My bad :/

Anne Frank is a great example, if you want to know what they're like in youth.

I updated the post
