field of neurophysiology while two also specialized in the field of ocular physiology. One-half of the prize was awarded to Roger W. Sperry for his discoveries involving the cerebral hemispheres whereas the other half was awarded and split between David H. Hubel and Torsten N. Wiesel for their findings on the visual system. Therefore, together their research altered how people originally thought the brain processed information by verifying how the brain functions and why information is perceived in such

The term power has in different occasions been described differently depending on different areas. The areas that it would depend on are the person that is describing it, the time in which the description is being made, and also the situation that leads to the description of the word power.

Sperry, David H. Hubel and Torsten N. Wiesel were awarded the coveted award for their work exploring brain function. By studying monkeys, Roger W. Sperry found that the nerves connecting the left and right hemispheres of the brain could be severed without causing any

research from animals. The animals were put in many painful contraptions that there was no way of escaping from. It was like prison for animals. “The most recent use of primates in Nobel Prize winning research occurred in 1981; Roger W. Sperry, David H. Hubel and Torsten N.
