Neural Networks fact or fiction? crash course: brain interconnected neurons regular connections or routes of communication for different tasks, processes, etc. body/brain “learns” networks over time “muscle memory” in sports (“practice makes permanent”) answer

Ways to Study the Brain Case Studies / Clinical Observation Accidents (i.e. – Phinneas Gage) Diseases / Disorders

Invasive Exploration Lesion - a natural or man-made destruction of brain tissue Electrical Probing Psychosurgery

Less Invasive Methods Electroencephalogram (EEG) Computerized Axial Tomography (CAT Scan / CT Scan) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Functional MRI (fMRI)

The Brain Pinky & the Brain made up of… neurons glial cells (or glia - support neural cells by insulating them, removing waste, etc.) connective tissues cerebrospinal fluid can be divided into three major sections: hindbrain, midbrain, forebrain
