Brain and nervous system problems like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and traumatic brain injuries afflict millions of people each year. These ailments and injuries serve as a reminder of how crucial our biological foundations are to our behavior. Investigating some of the fundamentals of biological psychology entails investigating the biological mechanisms that influence our thoughts, feelings, reactions, and behaviors. Biopsychology is the branch of psychology that studies how the brain influences behavior; it is also sometimes referred to as psychobiology or behavioral neuroscience. Recent technological developments have made it possible for researchers to investigate the human brain in ways that were not previously possible. The study of how the brain, neurotransmitters, and other components of our biology affect our behaviors, thoughts, and feelings is known as biopsychology. Numerous terms, such as biopsychology, physiological psychology, behavioral neuroscience, and psychobiology, are frequently used to refer to this area of psychology.
