Abstract
Esta conferencia pretende ofrecer una visión panorámica de los progresos en el conocimiento del cerebro, desde la fundación por Cajal de la moderna neurociencia hasta los muy recientes hallazgos aportados por la genética, la biología molecular, la microscopia y la electrofisiología al conocimiento de la estructura, conectividad y función de las células nerviosas, asi como sobre el funcionamiento integrado del cerebro humano aportado por las nuevas técnicas de imagen y el registro y estimulación selectivos de las distintas áreas cerebrales y su análisis con técnicas de computación. Finalmente se discutirán las repercusiones médicas y sociales que implica un mejor conocimiento del cerebro, sus limitaciones en el momento actual y los riesgo que conlleva el mal uso de los avances científicos de la neurociencia.
