A collection of written works recounting the personal and professional lives of individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of science, particularly neuroscience. These narratives, often penned by the scientists themselves or by authors with an intimate understanding of their work, provide an in-depth look into their discoveries, experiments, and the impact of their research. The category encompasses both autobiographies, where scientists narrate their own life stories, and biographies, where the life and work of a scientist are detailed by another author.
