A meta-framework examining how neuroscience itself stretches across levels of analysis, methods, and interpretations. The Elasticity of Neuroscience studies how the field stretches from molecules to minds, from synapses to societies—and how these stretches sometimes strain the discipline to its limits. It asks: how far can neuroscience stretch before it breaks? When does stretching from neuron to behavior become [overreach]? How does neuroscience recover from its own reductions? It's neuroscience reflecting on its own [possibilities] and limits. A framework proposing that the brain itself exhibits elastic properties—that neural systems can stretch, adapt, and recover within limits. Neuroscience Elasticity suggests that neuroplasticity is just one manifestation; the brain also stretches functionally (taking on new tasks), structurally (rewiring under pressure), and temporally (recovering from injury). The theory identifies the brain's elastic limits: when does stretching become damage? When does adaptation become pathology? [Understanding] the brain requires [understanding] how far it can stretch without breaking.
