Google Doodle celebrates the 96th birthday of Russian neuroscientist and psychologist Dr. Natalia Bekhtereva (Наталья Петровна Бехтерева), who created neurophysiological ways to deal with psychology, for example, estimating the impulse movement of human neurons, on 7 July 2020.
Natalia Petrovna Bekhtereva was born on July 7 in 1924 in Leningrad, Russia. As a kid, she was determined to succeed and willed herself to the head of her class. Vladimir Bekhterev’s granddaughter, she was stranded after her dad’s execution during the Great Purge of 1938.

In 1950, Natalia Bekhtereva started as a junior researcher with the Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, where she went through decades and eventually became the director of the Institute of Experimental Medicine. She survived the Siege of Leningrad and in 1959 she became a Doctor of Medicine.
Through her research, Dr. Natalia Bekhtereva made tremendous steps in the scientific comprehension of how the brain works, including how extraordinary neurological structures and procedures are connected. She likewise added to breakthroughs in the investigation of chronic nervous system disorders and pioneered less invasive surgical techniques to diagnose and treat them. She was the founder of the Institute for Human Brain, working under the support of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, of which she was appointed a member in 1981.
