In this video of an interview with Terry Sejnowski, a number of areas of brain research are touched. It’s about 30 minutes; I think they are well spent minutes.
Some areas touched on by Doctor Sejnowski-
-
We are learning animals, therefore unique.
-
Our environments change the brain itself by participation in these environments
-
We invent in technology, play, sport.
-
Neurons adapt best when we are young.
-
Brain fitness exercise is a practice makes perfect interaction.
-
Brain fitness programs should include a language component.
-
Music and the brain development are interactive at any stage of life.
-
Brain chemistry and addiction must include research on dopamine.
