José Padilha directs this big-budget remake starring Joel Kinnaman as the part-man, part-machine police officer known as RoboCop. In the year 2028, multinational company OmniCorp are leading the way in robot technology, with machines serving in the military around the world. Eager to increase OmniCorp's profits, CEO Ray Sellars (Michael Keaton) wants to advance to the next level by developing a part-robot police officer. When Detroit cop Alex Murphy (Kinnaman), a devoted family man, is critically wounded, Sellars seizes his chance to use him in his project and RoboCop is created at the hands of scientist Dr. Dennett Norton (Gary Oldman). The robot has been designed to remain under the control of the company but they have failed to take into account the human factor and the man who exists inside the machine begins to develop the ability to override their system... The film also stars Samuel L. Jackson and Abbie Cornish.
Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934), the father of modern neuroscience and a Nobel laureate, was an exceptional artist. He devoted his life to the anatomy of the brain, the body's most complex and mysterious organ. His superhuman feats of visualisation, based on fanatically precise techniques and countless hours at the microscope, resulted in some of the most remarkable illustrations in the history of science. Beautiful Brain presents a selection of his exquisite drawings of brain cells, brain regions and neural circuits with accessible descriptive commentary. An art book at the crossroads of art and science, Beautiful Brain describes Cajal's contributions to neuroscience, explores his artistic roots and achievement and looks at his work in relation to contemporary neuroscience imaging techniques.
