Brain Injury and Behavioral Neuroscience

Brain Injury:

It is the destruction or declension of brain cells. Brain injuries occur due to a large range of internal and external factors. In common, brain injury refers to consequential, undiscriminating trauma-induced destruction, while neurotoxicity typically mentions selective, chemically produced neuron injury.

• Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Acquired brain injury

Behavioral Neuroscience:

Behavioral neuroscience, also called as biological psychology, biopsychology, or psychobiology, is the implementation of the principles of biology to the study of physiological, genetic, and developmental mechanisms of behavior in humans and other animals.

• Sensation and perception.
• Motivated behavior (hunger, thirst, sex)
• Control of movement.
• Learning and memory.
• Sleep and biological rhythms.
• Emotion.
