What is Neuroscience? A Beginner’s Guide to the Brain (Season 2, Episode 1: Neuroscience)

Tiara’s Curious Lab: Bio, Psych & Tomorrow’s Science

Have you ever wondered what’s really going on inside your head? In this episode, we’re taking you on a fascinating tour of the most powerful organ in your body — the brain. Whether you’re curious about how your thoughts form, how your body knows when to move, or even why we dream, this beginner’s guide to neuroscience will spark your imagination.

We’ll explore how billions of tiny cells called neurons create an intricate communication network that powers everything you feel, think, and do. You’ll also discover why the brain is like a bustling city, where each part — from the "little brain" at the back to the emotional hubs deep inside — plays a special role in keeping you alive, alert, and uniquely you.

But that’s not all — we’ll dive into brain waves, why sleep is so critical, and how illusions can trick your brain into seeing things that aren’t really there. Plus, we’ll peek into the future of brain research, where scientists are blending biology with technology to unlock mysteries of consciousness and even connect brains to machines!

If you’ve ever been curious about what makes you you, this episode is your perfect starting point. Join us to uncover the science behind your mind, and see the brain in a way you’ve never imagined before!
