Cognitive neuroscience has started to probe cross-cultural differences in the neuronal mechanisms underlying cognitive, perceptual and social domains. Moreover, brain imaging has revealed how education changes the brain. Such research opens up a new frontier in brain plasticity research, breaking down the boundaries between neuroscience and other traditionally non-biological disciplines, resulting in many conceptual and practical implications.
认知神经科学已经开始探究认知、感知和社会领域的神经机制中的跨文化差异。此外,脑成像技术揭示了教育如何改变大脑。此类研究为大脑可塑性研究开辟了一个新的前沿领域,打破了神经科学与其他传统非生物学科之间的界限,带来了许多概念和实际的影响。
