Περίληψη: In this article the author presents his opinion on the development of neuroscience and focuses on the fact that a significant proportion of the science in neuroscience has a more baconian than popperian character. He emphasized on mathematical models for the measurements of the brain that make strong predictions which can be experimentally tested and he found that Bacon's scientific method is of great use.
