To give a magnitudeit is estimated that the brain contains just over 100 billion neurons each of which can form up to 10,000 connections, all contained in a volume equivalent to that of a carton of milk. It is thanks to this formidable neural network that we can enjoy a good movie, fall in love or solve a puzzle, among other things.
The brain is the seat of higher functions (cognitive functions, senses, memory, emotion…). Scientific research allows us today to know more about this essential organ which ensures the regulation of all vital functions.
