Three myths about the brain
Three myths about the brain
- August 1, 2014
- An op-ed by Greg Hickok, cognitive sciences professor and Center for Language Science director, is featured in The New York Times August 1, 2014
From The New York Times:

that our brain’s potential is largely untapped. The myth persists, however. The newly

the full potential of her brain, is only the latest and most prominent expression
of this idea. … Gregory Hickok, a professor of cognitive science at the University
of California, Irvine.
