7 Myths About The Brain

(YouTube link)

There are certain bits of knowledge that are repeated so many times in popular culture that we eventually start to believe them. Many of these “facts” are oversimplifications and exaggerations of early research which is later refined and found to be not true at all.

Sigh.

AsapSCIENCE debunks some of the myths about the brain by looking at the latest research in their latest video. Your brain is probably just fine -and not so much different from other people’s brains. -via Viral Viral Videos
