The technology at the time was also not advanced enough to allow scientists to observe the microscopic activities of the brain and the brain behaviour of patients who had suffered from damage to the organ. My brain health is no longer dictated by the size and weight of the brain I was born with, but rather what I do with it. As you think, neural connections form between your brain cells, or neurons. The more you work your brain, the more you strengthen the neural connections and enhance your cognitive skills. These increase connectivity between brain regions and help form new neural networks, strengthening brain density.
