Einstein :: Biography, Science

psyches Brain Markedly different from normThe article that I have read is about how Albert Einsteins gray matter in his wittiness has differences than the average persons. They are not sure though if it has any links between his great news show though. Dr. Dahlia W. Zaidel of UCLA was the researcher on this project. She started out by investigating to see if the brain of a genius might show special features. She then examined dickens slides made from Einsteins brain after his death in 1955. The slides contained samples of his hippocampus. She then compared Einsteins brain with tissue from ten individuals of ordinary intelligence agency from the ages of 22 to 84 qt their time of death.Einsteins neurons on the left side of the brain were consistently larger then those on the right side. Dr. Zaidel famous that these marking were much different from those seen in the other brain of people with normal intelligence. She noted, that the neurons in the left hippocampus imply that Ein steins brain may have had stronger nerve cell connections between the hippocampus and the neocortex than his right. She noted that The neocortex is where detailed, logical, analytical and innovated thinking takes place.With the difference in the size of the neurons are unknown, whether they occurred at birth during development or as an abnormality. She said also that she didnt know if this asymmetry is related to his genius or not. At the stamp out it said that normal brain tissue is usually available for study but there is no brain bank for geniuses.
