title: A brief sketch of Soviet neuroscience.
abstract: Social and cultural philosophy in the guise of various forms of materialism has long been the basis on which Soviet science (including neuroscience) is founded. Neuroscientific research developed within a number of 'schools', each associated with the doctrine of their founders and concentrated in a few large cities. Currently, central governmental funding covers research within state neuroscience programmes.
