Before long, I was reading graduate neuroscience textbooks and then scientific journals. Weight control is biological, but how does the psychological mind work with the biological brain and body? Ramachandran is Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition with the Psychology Department and Neurosciences Program at the University of California, San Diego, and Adjunct Professor of Biology at the Salk Institute. Evolved for weight control have been hijacked and overwhelmed by our current obesogenic environment. So even though there is a biological substrate, we need our cognitive controls--the “minded brain”--more than ever if we want to control the burgeoning development of worldwide obesity. Dualism redux in recent neuroscience: "Theory of mind" and "embodied simulation" hypotheses in light of historical debates about perception, cognition, and mind. I was basically interested in the ways that cognitive neuroscientists and psychologists had come to understand and do research on a thing called 'autism.' I wanted and humanists moved by the possibility of a felt, embodied layer of knowledge, deeply entangled with what we understand as a conscious awareness, and colleagues who remain sceptical of (what they see sometimes see as) older biological-essentialist rhetorics, now dressed in new theoretical clothing. Series B: Biological Sciences, 362, 659-669. As the field continues to grow, we will better understand the social, biological, and cognitive factors that determine how we relate to others. Neuroscientist Antonio Damasio has written of our “minded brain.
