An Existential Crisis in Neuroscience
What we need is a Newtonian model of the brain. A model that is incomplete and &quot;wrong&quot;, but useful and generative. While Newtonian physics may be &quot;wrong&quot;, is much easier to learn than quantum physics or relativity, etc.<p>Neuroscience usually focuses on precision details, but doesn&#x27;t aim to tell big picture stories. There are a few exceptions, however, like Karl Friston&#x27;s free energy reduction model.
