3: Mathematics or Experiments by PROFESSOR CHRISTOPHER ZEEMAN Warwick University and DR. GILES BRINDLEY
Cambridge University
Christopher Zeeman is a topologist -a mathematician with a special interest in the geometry of many-dimensional spaces. Over the last few years he has been using topology in a theoretical study of the brain's activities. Dr. Brindley on the other hand is a neurophysiologist, and his study of the brain is largely experimental. These two different approaches to the problem of understanding how the brain works are the basis of tonight's discussion.
