Despite the amazing advances we have achieved in our understanding of the nervous system, countless fundamental questions regarding the relation between the brain and the mind remain unanswered. Examples of these questions include: How is sensory data converted to subjective perception? How are memories stored and recovered? Is the brain a general-purpose learning instrument or a toolbox of innate and specialized processors?
