How does music and sport effect our brain?

Well, neuroscience, brain studies and researchers have been looking for ways to understand and optimize our brain capacity. They all had found out that our brains are able to learn until we die because our grey matter is plastic and formable, which was a ground-breaking discovery. The next step was to find out what can have a positive and sustainable impact on our brains and learning behaviour.
