Complex Brain Functions: Conceptual Advances in Russian NeuroscienceRobert Miller, Alexey M Ivanitsky There are many difficulties hindering western scientists from becoming acquainted with Russian scientific literature, including both political and language barriers. Russian science has a long and proud tradition going back as far as Peter the Great and the founding of the Russian Academy of Science in 1725. However, Russian neuroscientists from th |
