But we did not evolve to have the same
brain.
And we're finding more and more gender differences in the
brain.
We now know the
brain
circuitry of imagination, of long-term planning.
Because the female parts of the
brain
are better connected, they tend to collect more pieces of data when they think, put them into more complex patterns, see more options and outcomes.
When the male
brain
works well, it works extremely well.
But these three
brain
systems: lust, romantic love and attachment, aren't always connected to each other.
The things are connected in the
brain.
And when you tamper with one
brain
system, you're going to tamper with another.
You fall in love with somebody who's somewhat mysterious, in part because mystery elevates dopamine in the brain, probably pushes you over that threshold to fall in love.
And I also think that you gravitate to certain people, actually, with somewhat complementary
brain
systems.
And he knew from our work that if you go and do something very novel with somebody, you can drive up the dopamine in the brain, and perhaps trigger this
brain
system for romantic love.
Now, for you who may be less familiar with the term "autism," it's a complex
brain
disorder that affects social communication, learning and sometimes physical skills.
As we know, babies are born without their full muscle development, and that includes the
brain.
During the first three years of life, the
brain
grows to its full size, with most of that growth taking place in the first six months.
The
brain
develops in response to experience and to stimulation.
I'm a
brain
scientist, and as a
brain
scientist, I'm actually interested in how the
brain
learns, and I'm especially interested in a possibility of making our brains smarter, better and faster.
What we do in the lab is actually measure directly, in a quantitative fashion, what is the impact of video games on the
brain.
So we're actually leveraging that work to develop games for patients with low vision, and to have an impact on retraining their
brain
to see better.
So most of you have a
brain.
So in the same way that we actually see the effects of video games on people's behavior, we can use
brain
imaging and look at the impact of video games on the brain, and we do find many changes, but the main changes are actually to the
brain
networks that control attention.
Now, when we do
brain
imaging, we find that all three of these networks are actually much more efficient in people that play action games.
This actually leads me to a rather counterintuitive finding in the literature about technology and the
brain.
That's another argument for why we need to step into the lab and really measure the impact of technology on the
brain.
Now in a sense, when we think about the effect of video games on the brain, it's very similar to the effect of wine on the health.
So it's the same way, like those action video games have a number of ingredients that are actually really powerful for
brain
plasticity, learning, attention, vision, etc., and so we need and we're working on understanding what are those active ingredients so that we can really then leverage them to deliver better games, either for education or for rehabilitation of patients.
Like, the reason that I asked you to do that is because you really feel your
brain
cringing, right?
There are
brain
scientists like me that are beginning to understand what are the good ingredients in games to promote positive effects, and that's what I'm going to call the broccoli side of the equation.
And we're working on it, but it takes
brain
scientists to come and to get together, people that work in the entertainment software industry, and publishers, so these are not people that usually meet every day, but it's actually doable, and we are on the right track.
Here we have the
brain
of the animal.
So it's very simple
brain.
