There are many interesting facts about the way our brain and psyche work that most people do not yet know, and they would probably be surprised the mechanisms that regulate our cognition are complex.

The intimate secrets of memory

When we learn something new, changes occur in the brain. However, we still do not know exactly what these changes are that happen or what the consequences are specifically.
Likewise, one of the great enigmas of the human brain is the way in which different types of memory are activated. There is long and short term memory. There is also declarative memory, which handles the exact data. And non-declarative memory, which has to do with actions, such as swimming, for example.

Emotions, one of the great enigmas of the human brain

Emotions represent one of the great enigmas of the brain. First of all, we must point out that consensus has not yet been reached on how to define them from the neurological point of view. It is known that they are brain states and that such states allow assigning a value to the facts. Also that from this a plan of action is generated. However, this appreciation is not shared by all scientists.

We still do not know the secrets of intelligence

From the neurological point of view, there is no agreed definition of intelligence either. To specify the concept of intelligence, there is no brain schema that can be used as a definition of this capacity. Intelligence remains one of the great enigmas of the human brain.

We have no awareness of conscience

Consciousness is a philosophical, psychological and anthropological concept, among others, but it is also a neurological issue. So far it is known that contact with material things generates small changes in the brain. However, one of the great enigmas of the human brain is the way in which different levels of consciousness are produced.

Although much progress has been made in neurology, there are still many enigmas to solve around the functioning of the human brain. It is not for less, if one takes into account that it is a very complex organ and that it is the organ itself that is applied in the extraordinary task of self-knowledge.

See you. 👋
