The NeuroGenetics Reddit

Neurogenetics - the study of the role of genetics in the development and function of the nervous system. It considers neural characteristics as phenotypes (i.e. manifestations, measurable or not, of the genetic make-up of an individual), and is mainly based on the observation that the nervous systems of individuals, even of those belonging to the same species, may not be identical.

As the name implies, neurogenetics draws aspects from both the studies of neuroscience and genetics, focusing in particular how the genetic code an organism carries affects its expressed traits. Mutations in this genetic sequence can have a wide range of effects on the quality of life of the individual. Neurological diseases, behavior and personality are all studied in the context of neurogenetics.

The field of neurogenetics emerged in the mid to late 1900s with advances closely following advancements made in available technology. Currently, neurogenetics is the center of much research utilizing the cutting edge of research techniques.

Neurogenetics

Can anyone advise me about what should i study in the Netherlands to be a neurogeneticist, can i just do it in HBO biology & medical laboratory research and then do masters in university, or is that not an option and i should just go to university????

Speculations on the mid-brain's paranormals

There has always been the speculation by me that there was a conduit between my visceral agitations (usually, but not always, excitement) and fortuities of serendipitous profundity. I have thought that there was a judgemental ethic of morality as part of the process. This thought came to me that the fortuities were brought on by the amorally indifferent processes of the mid-brain whose intuitive and instinctual reactions had a direct-for a lack of a better term-'paranormal' power to precipitate atmospherics and highly sentient (dream) visions to other dimensions of procreation and recreation for our mind.
Our daily secular/temporal/cultural/social navigation were the province of the fore-brain for our non-drama, basic maintenance and sustenance concerns. Whatever and with whom-ever we engaged in this navigation were not necessarily those who would stimulate and activate the paranormal serendipities of the mid-brain. Thus, we potentially have two existences: one of the fore-brain for our carnal maintenance and sustenance, and one of the mid-brain which allows us not only acute physiological bliss, but interfacing in other cognitive dimensions and realms of perspective.
