Did you know that the cerebellum helps distinguish expected from unexpected sensations. This is why you cannot tickle yourself effectively.

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!🌞

Have you ever wondered why listening to your favorite songs boosts your mood? The answer is that music lights up your brain's reward parts and releases the feel-good chemicals dopamine and oxytocin. Dopamine release may also help improve your memory because your brain creates a positive connection between a memory (or a piece of information) and the song you are listening to. So, don't delay in creating that study playlist.

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!!😏

Did you know that your brain needs to forget things to function properly. Forgetting less relevant memories allows for better decision-making and improved well-being, as it helps individuals interact more flexibly with their environment. So, the next time someone chastises you for forgetting something, let them know it’s just your brain functioning correctly.

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!😁

Did you know babies are born with way more neurons than they’ll actually keep? During the first few years of life, the brain goes through massive “synaptic pruning,” trimming unused connections to make neural networks more efficient.

By age 2–3, a child’s brain has about twice as many synaptic connections as an adult brain — making early childhood one of the most neurologically dynamic times of life!

It’s like the brain’s own version of spring cleaning… even in the middle of winter ❄️🧹

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!😉

In honor of Black History Month, we would like to highlight Dr. Audrey S. Penn. Dr. Penn was the first Black woman to serve as a director of an Institute at the National Institutes of Health—she served as deputy director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and remains an inspiring role model to many women physician-scientists to this day.
She’s an emeritus professor, neurologist and physician!

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!😁

Did you know that the longest nerve in the human body runs from the spinal cord down both legs and into your feet. It is called the sciatic nerve and is responsible for providing sensation and motor function to the lower limbs.

Happy Friday Sunrise Family!🥶

Did you know that in 1848, a railroad worker named Phineas Gage survived a severe brain injury when a tamping rod damaged his frontal lobe. Although he recovered physically, his personality, behavior, and decision-making changed dramatically.
This injury revealed the critical role of the frontal lobe, the part of the brain responsible for judgment, impulse control, emotional regulation, planning, and social behavior.

Gage’s case helped scientists understand that different areas of the brain control different functions, laying the foundation for modern neuroscience.
