Your brain starts making social decisions before you do - Date: - June 2, 2026 - Source: - The Hebrew University of Jerusalem - Summary: - Researchers found that social behavior begins in the brain before it becomes visible as movement. In zebrafish, a coordinated pattern of activity spread across the brain several seconds before the animals approached another fish. A higher brain region called the pallium played a key role, and fish with stronger neural signals were generally more social.
