Sergey Saveliev is a famous domestic scientist. He is the head of a large laboratory for the study of the characteristics of the nervous system, which works at the research institute of human morphology. Works at the Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations.
Biography of a scientist
Sergey Saveliev was born in Moscow. He was born in 1959. His interest in the natural sciences appeared at school. Therefore, he entered the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute. Graduated from the Department of Chemistry and Biology.
He began his career at the Institute of the Brain at the Academy of Medical Sciences of the Soviet Union. In 1984 he moved to a research institute engaged in the study of human morphology.
She is fond of photography, even a member of the Union of Photo Artists of Russia.
Scientific activity
Sergey Savelyev became famous for the fact that for the past three decades he has been studying the morphology and evolution of the human brain. During this time he wrote more than a dozen monographs, about a hundred scientific articles. He compiled the world's first stereoscopic atlas of the human brain. He received an award from the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences for him.
Professor Sergey Saveliev is famous for research in the field of embryonic pathologies of the nervous system. He develops methods for their diagnosis.
He was the first in the world to photograph a human embryo who was only 11 days old. Also among his merits is the creation of a theory of control over the early embryonic development of the brain in vertebrates. With its help, he proves that the future of the cell is determined not by genetics, but by biomechanical interactions. Thus, he questioned the existence of many genetic diseases.
Sergey Saveliev also studies theories of the origin of the human nervous system. As well as its modern evolution. Develops the fundamental principles of adaptive evolution of behavior and the nervous system itself.
Brain study
Thanks to his research, he was able to develop a technique by which the hidden signs of schizophrenia are determined today. This is done based on the presence or absence of certain cavities in the pineal gland.
Since 2013, he leads a group of scientists who carefully examine the mammoth’s brain. It includes not only employees of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, but also representatives of the Yakut Academy of Sciences, the Museum of Paleontology of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The result of this work was the world's first three-dimensional model of the mammoth brain, which was made in 2014.
Sergey Saveliev - Doctor of Biological Sciences, who led the 2014 Gecko experiment. Its purpose is to establish a connection between microgravity and sexual behavior. The object of study is geckos, which in the embryonic state were sent for two months to a research satellite in orbit.
Recently, he has been actively promoting the idea of cerebral sorting. This is a special method for analyzing a person’s unique abilities, which is done by evaluating the structure of the brain using a tomograph.
Teaching work
The biography of Sergey Savelyev is closely related to the teaching work. He gives lectures to students of Moscow State University. Works at the Department of Vertebrate Zoopsychology.
In particular, she teaches a course on the comparative anatomy of the nervous system in representatives of vertebrates.
The views of a scientist
Sergey Saveliev, whose photo is in this article, believes that in the future people will develop along the path of inevitable primitivization. His level of intelligence will decline, physical characteristics deteriorate.
He considers the assertions of a number of scientists about the functioning of the human body, aimed at reproduction, to be false. He calls the theory of conditioned reflex, cloning, and stem cells scientific and religious fanaticism. It justifies them only by the existence of social instincts.
