Brain circuits integrate from "summary" of Discovering the Brain by National Academy of Sciences,Institute of Medicine,Sandra Ackerman
The brain is a complex network of interconnected circuits that work together to process information and generate responses. These circuits are made up of neurons that communicate with each other through electrical and chemical signals. When we experience something, such as seeing a familiar face or hearing a loud noise, different brain circuits are activated to help us make sense of the situation. Each brain circuit is responsible for a specific function, such as processing visual information or controlling movement. However, these circuits do not work in isolation – they are interconnected and work together to integrate information from different sources. This integration allows the brain to generate a coordinated response to the s...
