Abstract

Since the origin of neuroscience as a discipline, great discoveries have been made in this area, but at the same time questions and problems arise that this science still cannot solve. Probably there is no consensus when defining what are the unsolved problems of neuroscience, but what most neuroscientist are sure about is recognizing that these problems exist. Is the neuroscience of future, with its achievements and unsolved problems, the neuroscience we want? In this document, a count of the so-called unsolved problems of neuroscience is elaborated, according to several authors who have analyzed the limits of this discipline in the future. Likewise, a summary of the itinerary of ideas of Pedro Ortiz Cabanillas’ Sociobiological Informational Theory will be made as an alternative proposal in order to finally shape the neuroscience of the future, the neuroscience that we desire.

Keywords: Neuroscience; Information theory; Society; Sociobiology.
