Die neue Forschungsrichtung der Developmental Neuroscience untersucht die Plastizität und Regenerativität des Gehirns über die Lebensspanne. Hierfür stützt sie sich auf kulturell und historisch geprägte Konzepte wie Generation, Alter, Kindheit oder Adoleszenz. Der Workshop diskutiert den Einfluss von Kultur auf die Neurowissenschaften bzw. den Einfluss der Neurowissenschaften auf unsere Gegenwartskultur.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
