Lisa Genova has her PhD in Neuroscience. She used her background in neuroscience to gain access to the chief of neurology in hospitals as well as genetic counselors and leader’s in Alzheimer’s research

Hi, Michael, I enjoyed reading your essay especially since we differed in some of our analysis. It’s always good to look at things from someone else’s perspective. In his 2006 essay “Sweatshop Oppressions” Ravisankar (as cited in Kirszner & Mandell, 2017, p.117-118) says that his audience is “’poor’ college students”. He also immediately creates a sense of unity between his audience and himself with the use of the words “we” and “us”. I absolutely agree that he appealed mostly to emotion as he described the horrible working conditions, especially when he mentioned child labor (which I forgot to mention in my essay). We agree that big corporations are to blame for the dismal working conditions, though it sounds like the blame is being placed

It is full of comprehensive and engaging style; well reference and scientifically proven, summarizes the current revolution in neuroscience and neuroplasticity, and closes the gap that the old age or matured brain, which is unchangeable is changeable and malleable (plastic); extending it functions from one region to the other. Doidge engaging style of writing, scientific proves, and academic tone help to make the book persuasive.

After the BBC experiment many websites and doctors started examining the breakthrough study. The university article also states that “The results were startling. Individuals paced neurotically in their cells, and some reported visions of oysters, zebras and tiny cars. Psychological tests administered before and after the ordeal demonstrated significant declines in subjects’ intellectual faculties on the one hand, and increases in suggestibility on the other. (University, 2011)”

Edgar Allen Poe is one of the most well known poets, He brought in many eras of writing and ushered in new styles of stories. However growing up things weren’t always the easiest and those hardships are often reflected in his writing. One of the biggest examples of this is his resentment towards males and father figures. When he was just a boy his father left Edgar and his siblings with their mother, when his mother passed away he went to a foster family. He differed from his foster father a lot and they didn’t get along. In the documentary The mystery of Edgar Allen Poe it talks about how he viewed women claiming “From his youngest days Poe viewed women as angelic figures” This is actually carried into his writings while the women are viewed

The article titled “Cosmetic Neurology: Tinkering with the Brain.” by Carole Wade and Carol Tavris discusses the different ways to enhance or deter brain memory. But the first question that remains: the definition of cosmetic neurology? Cosmetic Neurology is like brain surgery but with prescription drugs to enhance your focus and memory. In reference to the article, one drug included in the study is Provigil which they say ensures improve to your memory and may also have other benefits. Drugs that are called glutamate receptors improves short term memory but also may cause you to lose long term memories for example: a small term memory would be that Marcy had to study for a math mid-term and a long term memory would be that she forgot what

Alzheimer's, a progressive disease that destroys memory function. Although doctors and scientists have worked tirelessly over the years, there is currently no cure. Recently the University of Pennsylvania conducted a study, with Dr. Doris Greenblatt as one of their patients, to pave the way for brain electrode shocking therapy. These “well-timed pulses” would be implanted in the patient’s brain to enhance their poor functioning memory (Carey). Benedict Carey, a medical journalist for the New York Times, asserts in “Pacemaker for the Brain Can Help Memory, Study Finds” that using electrodes to target parts of the brain that don’t function properly “is a breakthrough moment” in alzheimer’s research (Carey). Carey supports this assertion by explaining

It has been reported that by the year 2030, the number of dementia patients will increase to 75.6 million cases worldwide (Qiu-Yue Wang, Dong Mei Li, 2016). Alzheimer’s is the most common type of dementia characterized by major brain tissue degeneration. The widespread network of damage that accumulates with age often manifests as anger, depression, anxiety, and other behavioral and psychological symptoms that are difficult to treat through medication (Qiu-Yue Wang, Dong Mei Li, 2016). Art therapy serves as a channel of communication to patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s who have lost their ability to speak or think clearly. Several benefits have been observed through art therapy interventions in patients with a degenerative brain disease such as Alzheimer’s. A study conducted in 2004 showed that patients with severe dementia could effectively improve their visual-spatial abilities as well as delay the progression of the disease through painting and drawing (Qiu-Yue Wang, Dong Mei Li, 2016). Furthermore, it has been reported that the use of antipsychotics could increase mortality and cerebrovascular events among older patients with dementia (Rue-Chuan Chen et al., 2014). Non-pharmacological treatments should not be underestimated when alleviating the burdens of Alzheimer’s on patients. The brain is a infinite network of circuits and connections that change

A woman came into his clinic with extreme paranoia and memory loss. The patient did not survive, and upon further observation of her brain, Dr. Alzheimer found a gathering of unidentifiable material around and within her nerve cells. Also, the brain was below average size, indicating brain shrinkage (“Milestones”). Since its discovery, Alzheimer 's has leapt to 6th place on the United

Scientists are motivated for the need to understand the brain to explain neurological diseases such as Autism, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Schizophrenia, and many more. The cure to many of these may just be found hidden in the brain. Could it really be just simple as rewiring the brain or replacing defective or missing parts? The

If one is considering cosmetic surgery I suggest reconsidering. Research shows cosmetic surgery can be a risky and costly procedure. Society is pressuring people to look more attractive. Media shows actors to be flawless and the public feels that one should be compared to these actors. Cosmetic surgery is becoming more popular is today’s culture. People are turning to cosmetic surgery for many reasons, some of them are not healthy.
