Be curious Curiosity is an innate part of human nature, what drives us to learn and adapt to new environments, and for the first time, scientists have pinpointed where in the brain curiosity originates. The discovery was made by researchers at Columbia University in the United States. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans measure oxygen levels in different parts of the brain, showing how busy each area is at any one time. Understanding the origins of curiosity can help us better understand human behavior and may lead to treatments for conditions in which curiosity is lacking. Chronic depression etc..Specific brain…
