Innovation and creativity are words that we are accustomed to hearing used interchangeably especially as it relates to entrepreneurship. But, how many of us know that they are actually quite different? This episode of The Entrepreneurial You Podcast explores all this from a neuro-science perspective. The conversation with Dr. Britt Andreatta was quite enlightening.
Here is a snippet of what Britt shared:
“From a neuroscience perspective, neuroscientists have been able to study what happens in the brain when we have that aha moment. They can set people up for the ‘aha moment’ and have them on an MRI machine. We know that when we’re having that burst in our mind of like, Oh, I have this new idea, we can see in the brain about a third of a second before that aha moment, there’s a burst of gamma waves above our right ear.
There’s a certain part of the brain that’s called the anterior temporal gyrus. What we see is that there’s this gamma wave burst and also a rush of blood into that part of the brain. Then even a full second before that, scientists have found that there’s a burst of alpha waves in the right typical cortex, which is where we see; it’s part of our vision cortex. It suppresses vision for just a millisecond. Scientists call it the brain blink.”
Listen to the episode and let us know what is your biggest takeaway.
