The brain is not mental! coupling neuronal and immune cellular processing in human organisms
Neuroscience now recognizes that the brain and the body are so intimately intertwined that they cannot be thought of separately.
Embodiment
Cognition, in this view, is a dynamical process that happens not only within and between brains, but across a variety of biological, behavioural and social levels of organisation.
Sofia Quaglia • How the brains of social animals synchronise and expand one another
We build upon the key fact that the brain is (part of) the body and as such, like any other bodily organ, the brain is made of cells. The focus on cellular rather than neural, brain processing allows us to underscore the idea that flexible responses to changes in the environments requires flexible adjustments not only through neural, but also throu...

The brain is a material network of neurons, synapses and biochemicals. The mind is a flow of subjective experiences, such as pain, pleasure, anger and love.
Yuval Noah Harari • 21 Lessons for the 21st Century
Collective neuroscience offers a different way of seeing neuropsychiatric conditions such as depression and schizophrenia, for example – not as instances of individual ‘dysfunctions’ in the brain, but as phenomena that emerge from multiple dynamic physiological and social processes. How does one get to the bottom of human cognition if we are intrin... See more

minds are an emergent property of systems that are configured to process and integrate information.
