The lecture will discuss the background, importance and future development of cognitive neuroscience research from a macro perspective. First of all, Professor Ovid Tzeng started with "Who are we? Where did we come from? Where are we going?" A series of philosophical questions raises the key role of intelligence in human development to the present, and suggests that cognitive neuroscience can provide cross-disciplinary integration, help us understand ourselves, and answer questions about historical development. In addition, Professor Tzeng explored the history of human cognitive development and the brief history of cognitive neuroscience, and hypothesized from the perspective of social and historical development that the cognition of human brain may be related to many important areas of social development, and that social history is reflected in the evolution of our brain.
