Summary: Scientists are using brain scans to discover amazing things about how we think and make choices! For example, did you know that when buying everyday groceries like milk and eggs, Democrats and Republicans use completely different brain pathways to make the exact same choice?

Researchers also looked at lost photos of Albert Einstein’s brain and found unique physical structures that might explain his incredible math genius. Other fascinating studies show that experts solve Rubik's Cubes entirely in their minds before moving their hands, and that a loving, accepting home actually speeds up a child's brain development. Scientists are even learning how our gut bacteria affect our memory, and how the brain triggers the breakdown of stubborn fat. It turns out our brains are full of wild surprises!
