Psychology has a lot of interesting areas, but I like psychology related with biology, especially the neuroscience area. This area studies structure, function, evolutionary history, development, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, informatics, computational neuroscience and pathology of the nervous system. I like the relationship between our biological constitution and the mind (how the mind mades our perceptions over the biological mechanism).
This area is difficult to studie in Chile now, but our country is the most advanced in Latin America. There are some laboratories in Chile, in some Universities that research the nervous sistem and human psychology.
However, now the interest in this area is increasing, because the marketing studies need information about the brain and the way of perceive, for example.
Finally, It´s important to emphasize the Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela contributions to change the limited biological paradigm. With their studies and thought the human psychology have been integrated like important way of explanation in the scientific research.
