FACT or MYTH: A bigger brain is a better brain.

Myth! Brain sizes can vary from person to person but that doesn’t necessarily mean a
bigger brain has more neurons than a smaller brain. The measure of “neuronal density”
is a bigger factor when it comes down to looking at numbers for neurons in the brain.
What’s more important than just sheer numbers of neurons, is how your brain is
connected within itself. This is why even though Albert Einstein’s brain was quite small
compared to the average person’s, we can all agree he was quite smart.
