Floyd E. Bloom quotes:

As we begin the 21st century, the Hubble space telescope is providing us with information about as yet uncharted regions of the universe and the promise that we may learn something about the origin of the cosmos. This same spirit of adventure is also being directed to the most complex structure that exists in the universe - the human brain.

The study of the human brain and its disease remains one of the greatest scientific and philosophical challenges ever undertaken.
