-The human brain-
The application of scientific knowledge to understanding how humans, and the creatures around us, function and react with each other has always been a source of wonder. The opportunity to combine a scientific understanding of processes and structure of the nervous system and brain with knowledge of applications relevant to our own behaviour, including those of a clinical kind, makes neuroscience such an attractive prospect of life.
Neuroscience is more than the nervous system and brains. It's digging deeper and finding out how? And why? People function and portray themselves in the ways they do. The brain is arguably the most important organ in the human body. It controls and coordinates actions and reactions, allows us to think and feel, and enables us to have memories and feelings-all the things that make us human.
-The seven major regions of the human brain-
The brain has exactly 7 major regions; each with a specific function. First of all, the Frontal Lobe followed by the Temporal Lobe, Parietal Lobe, Occipital Lobe, the Cerebellum, and the Brain Stem. Every region is specialised to delivering there job.
-Grey and white matter-
Gray and white matter are two different regions of the central nervous system. Each region serves a different role. Gray matter is primarily responsible for processing and interpreting information, while white matter transmits that information to other parts of the nervous system.
