Study offers window into human behavior, brain disease

says Seeley, that scientists will be able to figure out what these neurons normally do. But it won't be easy.

"These are such abstract brain capacities we're talking about…It's not like analyzing movement of your right arm or color vision. We're talking about understanding how we read others' minds. The philosopher in me sees the opportunity to really learn something interesting about human nature, here."

Still, he says, "It's the neurologist in me that brings me to work everyday, and as a neurologist what I want is to help cure the disease."
