The history of neuroscience is relatively short, starting with the theory of phrenology in 1796 by Franz Joseph Gall. This physician believed that various cerebral functions were localized, meaning that individual intellect and personality could be predicted based on brain or skull shape. Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934) then pioneered microscopic studies of the structure of the nervous system, receiving the Nobel Prize in 1906 for being the founder of neural anatomy. Most recently, the Brainbow was invented in 2007 by Harvard professors of neurobiology, which effectively tagged individual neurons in the brain with fluorescent proteins. This revolutionary technology led to beautiful and informative images for scientists (Vesna, 2012). (Complex neura...

1. I attended the final review and signed out at the end of the session. 2.  Study Guide:         On May 24 th , I attended a review session for the DESMA (Design Media Arts) 9 course, an Art|Sci course that helped me create this blog revolving around the intersection of art, science, and technology. With only two weeks left in the Spring Quarter at UCLA, it was crucial for me to attend this two-hour, PowerPoint-based review at the Broad Arts building. It was led by Professor Victoria Vesna, as well as all of the teaching assistants who guided the students through this course. Following this review, I have created the following study guide to help me successfully complete this course. Most importantly, the study guide contains deadlines for the final project and blog summary assignments, as well as some guidelines and advice.
