We can’t resist a brief digression into cognitive neuroscience. For a short, dazzling survey of Professor Rebecca Saxe’s latest research in the neural basis of theory of mind, i.e. how does our brain allow us to understand the mind of others, click http://amps-web.mit.edu/public/techday/2009/, and fast forward to 52:30. You will never think about cheese sandwiches the same way.

I don't know abut cheese sandwiches but I will never let someone else put sugar in my coffee again! A wonderfully entertaining and informative lecture (even for someone not in that field). It appears that the brain drain to the USA strikes again. Why is it that the best & brightest minds conducting cutting edge research have to leave Canada to find the support and funding to advance their science?
