Neuroscience provides the foundation for understanding the mind. Knowing how the mind works helps us to see ourselves and the world more clearly. It also enables us to understand consciousness, and ultimately to build conscious machines.
Our goal is to bridge the gap between science and the public. We publish articles and videos on topics of philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, mathematics, and evolution. We also organize meetups for discussions, offer research and writing services, and comment on current events (for example, the pandemic).
