Understanding the Mind by Mapping the Brain - Science Nation

Neuroanatomist Jacopo Annese studies brain structure to understand its role in behavior and memory. At the Brain Observatory, donated brains are sliced and digitized to create 3D images, helping to map brain structure to behavior. Annese seeks donors to commit to the program while alive, like Betty Ferguson, who donated her brain for research. Understanding the brain-behavior link could lead to insights into treating brain injuries and diseases.

What unique life experience did Betty Ferguson share related to her role in a famous movie?

In what ways does understanding the link between brain structure and behavior potentially benefit medical science?
