What is the Brain? Billions of nerve cells

What is the Brain? Thousands of connections where one neuron may interact (communicate) with other neurons. As many as 10,000 connections 40+ neurochemicals ( neurotransmitters)

Why Study the Brain? Sensation Motion Internal Regulation Reproduction Adaptation EVERYTHING WE DO!

Overarching Principles of Brain function Hierarchically organized Redundant control Inhibition Automaticity Conscious vs Unconscious processes

The Scientific Method Empiricism Objectivity Measurement and testing replication
