Scientists found the brain doesn’t start blank, it starts full
SMRTR summary
New research from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria reveals that the brain doesn't start as a blank slate — it starts fully wired. Scientists studying the hippocampus, the brain's memory center, found that newborns have dense, randomly connected neural networks that gradually get pruned into efficient, organized systems. This "start full, trim later" approach may help the brain quickly integrate complex information like sights, sounds, and smells into cohesive memories.
