👁One more reason to get a good night's sleep
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣The brain uses a quarter of the body's entire energy supply, yet only accounts for about two percent of the body's mass. So how does this unique organ receive and, perhaps more importantly, rid itself of vital nutrients? New research suggests it has to do with sleep.

🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

👣Psychologist Elizabeth Loftus studies memories.

👁Are all of your memories real?
🧠Daniel L. Schacter
🗣Subtitle: 🇹🇷Turkish | 🇬🇧English

👣In a 1990's study, participants recalled getting lost in a shopping mall as children. Some shared these memories in vivid detail, but there was one problem: none of these people had actually gotten lost in a mall. They produced these false memories after psychologists told them they'd gotten lost and parents confirmed it. So what's going on? Daniel L. Schacter explores the fallibility of our memory.

👁How to stay calm when you know you'll be stressed
🧠Daniel Levitin
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣You're not at your best when you're stressed. In fact, your brain has evolved over millennia to release cortisol in stressful situations, inhibiting rational, logical thinking but potentially helping you survive, say, being attacked by a lion. Neuroscientist Daniel Levitin thinks there's a way to avoid making critical mistakes in stressful situations, when your thinking becomes clouded -- the pre-mortem. "We all are going to fail now and then," he says. "The idea is to think ahead to what those failures might be."
