Image Press coverage | May 12, 2021 New Scientist David Eagleman interview: How our brains could create whole new senses Neuroplasticity, or the brain's ability to remodel itself, enables us to interpret all kinds of sensations. We can use that to create new ways to perceive the world, says neuroscientist David Eagleman Image Press coverage | Nov 5, 2017 The Verge Neuroscientist David Eagleman and composer Anthony Brandt explain how creativity... What makes humans special? Some credit should go to the opposable thumb and the larynx, says neuroscientist David Eagleman, but a lot of it has to do with our ability to be creative and constantly think up new ideas.
