#36: Both Sides of Your Brain Work Together

It’s true that certain parts of our brain tend to work harder than others when trying to solve puzzles, draw, speak, learn a new language, etc., but like the graphic below suggests, these things can be accomplished by both sides. Brains are truly still quite a mystery to scientists and the medical community.

They’re incredibly adaptive, which lends a certain inability to fully understand them to those investigating. Couple that with the fact that humans need their brains while alive, and we might not know their full capabilities for a long time. That’s okay with me! No one should offer their brain up for science before they’re good and ready.
