Super Bowl Brain: The Neuroscience Behind the Feasts, the Feels, and the Freak-outs
The Super Bowl isn’t just a game. It’s a neurological event. From dopamine spikes to tribal instincts, here’s why your brain goes all in on game day.
After having spent 10 years teaching both big kids and little kids (elementary school and university), I began my neuroscience research journey to understand how the brain works and how to make it work better. I recognize that not everyone is as geeky as I am, but I believe most of us want to optimize brain function for as long as we can. Beyond my work, I live in Naples, Florida and enjoy anything in the sunshine.
