Rodolfo Llinas
Rodolfo Llinas: he was Born in Bogotá in the year of 1937, where he advance their studies. It got married in Oceania with Guillan one he/she philosophizes.
Its curiosity for the enigmas of the brain began of its grandfather's hand, a noted siquiatra from Bogotá who I prosecute him in the world of the medicine. I finish their career in the university javerianana and immediately I travel to the exterior where you specializes in neurology. Step for the universities of Harvard and Minnesota in United States, and for the national university of Australia, where I work with the prize nobel John Eccles on a honored thesis on the cerebelum. The brain has been the basic topic of all its studies and discoveries to the point of concluding that him Man is not the being but intelligent that occupies the earth. "it is certain that we have a brain but big with many properties that already exist in some animalesy that even make tools to catch cosasa: the monkeys for example. The men are animal extremely strange: we don't have a lot of force, we don't run very quick, we don't fly, we don't have claws, neither I peel, the only thing that we have is brain." I affirm. At the moment he/she works for the nasa in project of interplanetary trip to Mars, to you see it that it directs the department of neurobiology of the university of New York and he/she is in the entire world member of several scientific associations. It has been object of 22 distinctions and international prizes and he/she has written but of 10 books and near 500 publications in medicine magazines and sciences.
It is a convinced one that the only exit that Colombia has left this in the education. " the wealth but real that has the country it is their people and the future this in the children. The problem of the education in Colombia has to do first with the professors. These are not trained for esducar. They have not understood to teach it is not to give to people knowledge. But even in the traditional form." I affirm. To their two children I inherit them the curiosity for the world and for that that considers the Man's bigger wealth: the knowledge. Although their visits are less and less periodic to Colombia, due to their multiple occupations, always this willing one to respond the questions of the young imvestigadores. The brain is like one schemes of creating images and movements, it is as a well tuned musical instrument, when depiertos are in fact we are dreaming and those dreams are being dominated by the senses. Being been worth of two projects of slides, llinas made of he/she interprets of the stranger language, finding answer for the human being aspects that up to now alone they were in the philosophy classrooms. Existing, not being, and the states of the dream were drawn in the illuminated screens. And the spirit is depicted. "We are a functional state of the brain. If we are sleeping we don't exist as thinking beings because then we don't want, we don't want" .Explico. Llinas also discovered the electric activity that serves so that the neurons communicate, and on the ions of calcium that make of bridge between the electricity neuronal and the chemistry. The work of Linas is very varied and he/she has made significant taxes to the conprension of the transmicion sinaptica in general and specifically in the badge neuromuscular. Llinas also had received doctorates honorarium in the universities of Salamanca and Barcelona, other of numerous prizes. He/she has the Art of finding things that nobody had persivido and it solves the questions that are outlined in an ingenious way. He/she is a man I practice that it carries out their ideas without caring him the esfuerso that is necessary imvertir. For 27 years you had transferred during the 3 months of summer with all their team to the station of marine biology of Wood Holl, the Massachusetts, to study the giant sinapsis of the Squid. Taking advantage that there it arrives the ships loaded with fresh Squids. Linas works arduously from 9 o'clock to the 1 dela tomorrow of the following day. The work of Llinas leads us to revise the paradigms that we had of the thought, the memory, the language, the integration neuronal. and it is escencial to understand complex as the Psicocis, the schizophrenia and several neurological pathologies.
