		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to the goofy interests of our usual attendants (and not, though the allegation would be fair, due to the name of the event), subject matter at Evenings for Brains tends regularly towards neuroscience and psychology in general.  As a result, I was acquainted with V. S. Ramachandran’s TED Talk, and was subsequently chuffed all [...]]]></description>
