Abstract
Science in general and mysteries of the brain in particular have puzzled us for centuries. For most of us, it is like an unfathomable sea. In this short article, the challenges of understanding our world and ourselves are depicted. In addition, ideas such as enhancing interdisciplinary bonding between art and science are proposed. The author supposes that the suggested approach should be open to accepting contributions from various scientific disciplines, arts, cultures and social groups.

Morteza Izadifar, Coburg University of Applied Sciences, University of Bamberg, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München
Morteza IZADIFAR is currently a research fellow at the Institute of Human Aesthetics at Coburg University of Applied Sciences and Art and Bamberg University, Coburg, Bavaria, Germany. His interest in human brain mysteries landed him in Munich for doing his doctorate in cognitive neuroscience at the Institute of Medical Psychology, the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU) under supervision of a prominent neuroscientist and psychologist, Professor Ernst Pöppel. He has worked as a research fellow in different cognitive neuroscience labs in the USA, Spain, China, France, Italy and Germany. His research interests include the underlying neuronal mechanism of brain functions such as neuroaesthetics, subjective time perception, time and timing of the brain, subjective time perception in imagery, cognitive neuroscience of imagery, discrete and continuous flow of consciousness, neural foundations of creativity, temporal nature of eye-movements during imagery/imagination, and schizophrenia. He has been motivated by this idea in translating brain science/psychology findings into everyday results for people/companies/foundations wanting to improve their performance, sustainability, health, and well-being.
