Neurobiological Evolution of Humans: From Neurons to Narratives (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781032885537)

Dr. Ali Moghtaderi is a professor of clinical neurology at a local university (ZAUMS) in Iran. He had been trained as a neurologist at Tehran University (TUMS) and had also worked as a fellow for more than four years in different disciplines in neurology; vascular intervention fellowship for one year in 2001 in Freiburg Albert Ludwig University, Germany, under the supervision of Martin Schumacher; and in 2007 he spent a year working with Louis Cuevas at the University of Liverpool (LSTM), UK, on tuberculous meningitis. In 2014-2015, Dr. Moghtaderi studied Neuroimmunology and Multiple Sclerosis with Luanne Metz at the University of Calgary, Canada. Although the fellowship courses expanded his scientific knowledge in neuroscience, he never found answers to the basic questions of the mind about how the mechanism of functional processes of the brain, such as consciousness, thinking, and memory, etc. During his career, Dr. Moghtaderi has trained neurology to many students, interns, residents and physicians; in addition doing academic research, writing articles and continue to do so. Recently he had an opportunity to reconsider his old passion for writing a book about the neurobiological evolution of the humankind. Therefore, in the past four years, Dr. Moghtaderi has dedicated more time to it, resulting in the present book with more than 800 references. He hopes this is a path to the dream of truth.
