Adaptive Brain

« Back to Glossary Index

The adaptive brain allows us to meet sudden challenges, opportunities, and threats. Interdependent brain regions connect emotion and cognition as networks. The brain’s neuroplasticity allows it to respond and adapt to internal/eternal stimuli, integrate and compare information, maintain homeostasis, and respond to stress and other internal/external needs, especially if there’s pain or damage. The adaptive brain developed over millions of years.
