Letter about Neuroscience

Dear Mrs. Silvia:

I am very grateful to you for offering us the opportunity to participate in your conference and also I appreciate the time spent reading this letter.

For me was very interesting to know and remember different topics about the human brain in their variety of complex issues that involve both the functioning of the body as well as the development of various skills of dexterity. I don’t know all the different technologies to study this important organ, for example: computerized axial tomography, MRI, electroencephalogram, autopsy and medics provide healthcare to local population.

Another example very amazing was the case of Phineas Gage, who because of an accident, as you explains in the conference, he suffered severe damage in the brain, specifically in the frontal lobe. He had noticeable changes in personality and temperament, which was considered as evidence that the frontal lobes are responsible for processes related to emotions, personality, and executive functions in general.

It is also very important to know that the brain has neural connections, these are developed throughout life and therefore how our "human being." And the importance of taking into account the environments in which we perform, for example: social and interactions, psychological environmental conditions, excessive stress, self-regulation of emotions, involvement opportunities, representations, ways of expression and action, reflection and enriched environments.

On the other hand, I considered that the Auditorium with the yellow lights are too very tired to the students like me who come to work. Besides the heat of the room is unbearable, the enclosure should have air conditioning and no bright lights suitable for sleepy students or participants.

Finally, thank you very much for sharing your experience and knowledge with us.

Best regards!
