Brain Injury and Behavioral Neuroscience
Brain injury is the harm or damage to the brain caused by various internal, external, or both factors. Such as trauma, stress, accidents, and stroke. Behavioural Neuroscience specializes in that injury or damage will affect the behavioral pattern of the person, in terms of cognition and motor functions.
Brain Injury :
– Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) refers to any physical trauma or concussion to the head, it also refers to severe situations like Coma.
– Acquired Brain Injury – (ABI) refers to internal damage to the brain due to stroke, stress, trauma, or infection.
The objective of Behavioural Neuroscience:
– It involves the evaluation of specific brain functions and areas
– It includes clinical trials and other methods that prove how damage to any part of the brain will lead to significant behavioral changes.
– Researchers also explore treatments and other therapies to help reverse and improve these behavioral changes.
