The Human Origin Project

The Human Origin Project (HOP) is an independent media company launched to enhance public understanding on the biggest questions on humanity. Fundamentally, every person on planet earth wants and needs to know where they come from. Our goal is to illuminate that true story of humanity. Our writers focus on developments across a broad range of topics to enhance public understanding on the progressive topic of Human Origins. We cover areas such as prehistory, anthropology, evolutionary biology, archaeology, ancient cultures, physics, the universe, and consciousness. It’s our belief that no scientific endeavor should be performed in isolation. We believe in the cross-pollination of ideas and techniques to enhance an evidence based foundation for progressing our thoughts. With techniques some would compare to alchemy, we bring together art with science, history with technology, and philosophy with evidence. At The Human Origin Project, scientific accuracy is every bit important as telling the true story. We check and meticulously reference our material, so you can be rest assured in reliability of content. We are independent an impartial, however we are also open-minded and aim to push the envelope when exploring non-conventional wisdom. We share our content for free to our mailing list, website, and social media platforms, while assimilating a global team to help bring our message to the widest audience as possible. It’s our pleasure to bring you the most progressive conversation on planet earth. Read More

Emotional Memory in People with Dementia – Aileen Wiglesworth, PhD, of UC Irvine Program in Geriatrics interviewed by Mary S. Twomey, MSW of National Center on Elder Abuse

University of California, Irvine study explores the characteristics of people with dementia and their retention of autobiographical, emotional memories. By interviewing people with dementia and family members who could corroborate memories, researchers explored two questions: - Do people with dementia have emotionally influenced memory? - If some do and some don’t, how do we identify the ones that do? Guest Speaker is Aileen Wiglesworth, Ph.D., Director of Research, Center of Excellence on Elder Abuse and Neglect and Associate Clinical Professor, Family Medicine, at UC Irvine School of Medicine.

Experimental Cognitive Psychology

Stanislas Dehaene received his training in mathematics at the École normale supérieure in Paris, then completed a PhD in cognitive psychology with Jacques Mehler, post-doctoral studies with Michael Posner, as well as neuronal modelling studies with Jean-Pierre Changeux. He has been working since 1997 at the Orsay brain imaging center near Paris (Service Hospitalier Frédéric Joliot of the Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique), where he directs the Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit since 2001. In September 2005 he was elected as a full professor on the newly created chair of Experimental Cognitive Psychology at the Collège de France in Paris. Stanislas Dehaene's interests concern the cerebral bases of specifically human cognitive functions such as language, calculation, and reasoning. The team uses a variety of experimental methods, including mental chronometry in normal subjects, cognitive analyses of brain-lesioned patients, and brain-imaging studies with positron emission tomography, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and high-density recordings of event-related potentials. Formal models of minimal neuronal networks are also devised and simulated in an attempt to throw some links between molecular, physiological, imaging, and behavioral data. Stanislas Dehaene's main scientific contributions include the study of the organization of the cerebral system for number processing. Using converging evidence from PET, ERPs, fMRI, and brain lesions, Stanislas Dehaene demonstrated the central role played by a region of the intraparietal sulcus in understanding quantities and arithmetic (the number sense). He was also the first to demonstrate that subliminal presentations of words can yield detectable cortical activations in fMRI, and has used these data to support an original theory of conscious and nonconscious processing in the human brain. With neurologist Laurent Cohen, he also studied the neural networks of reading and demonstrated the crucial role of the left occipito-temporal region in word recognition (the visual word form area). Stanislas Dehaene is the author of over 100 scientific publications in major international journals. He has received several international prizes including the McDonnell Centennial Fellowship and the Louis D. prize of the French Academy of Sciences (with D. Lebihan). He has published an acclaimed book (The Number Sense), which has been translated in eight languages. He has also edited three books on brain imaging, consciousness, and brain evolution, and has authored two general-audience films on the human brain. He is the associate editor of Cognition, an international journal of Cognitive Science. Read More
