Ever feel like your phone has a “tractor beam” on your attention? Or wonder why focus feels like an uphill battle some days? Join the Neuroscience Club this Thursday, February 12th, as we pull back the curtain on the chemicals and circuits that run your life.
This isn’t just a lecture; it’s an owner’s manual for your mind. We’re diving deep into the science of why we do what we do.
🔬 What’s on the Menu?
- CLIP Thinking: Learn this framework for Cognitive, Linguistic, Integrative, and Perceptual processing to understand how you actually absorb information.
- Dopamine & The Reward Loop: Discover how this “feel-good” neurotransmitter drives motivation—and how it can be hijacked.
- ADHD & Focus: We’ll break down the neurological roots of ADHD and explore what “focus” actually looks like in the brain.
- The “Slot Machine” in Your Pocket: A candid look at phone addiction and how apps are designed to exploit your brain’s biology.
📍 Meeting Details:
- Where: Mrs. Kuberg’s Classroom
- When: Thursday, February 12th
- Time: 2:30 PM (Right after school!)
Fun Fact: Your brain doesn’t actually “crave” the social media post itself; it craves the anticipation of the notification. That’s dopamine at work before you even unlock your screen!
