Abstract

The two unique fields of Neurology and Psychology share several things in common especially with respect to the final goal of improving human lives and modifying human behaviour. They may adopt various techniques to reach this goal, however, they both share similar concerns and are not mutually exclusive of the other. The relationship between the human brain and behaviour has been taught in both fields, establishing the shared relationship. The goal of this letter is to re-echo this fact and possibly forge more collaborations on how Neurological questions can be answered Psychologically and vice versa especially in Africa.
