      Absolutely! For example, there is an awful lot we don’t understand about the human brain. Scientists are discovering new things about the human body all the time!

      Oh yes. We know where all the organs, muscles, bones and tissues are, but we are still discovering exactly how they all work together. And like Francesca says, we still don’t understand the human brain, even though scientists have studied it for years!

      Oh definitely, there’s so much in the human body we don’t understand at the moment, particularly the human brain. Our brains are really really powerful and are capable of doing more advanced and complex calculations than even our best supercomputers – but we don’t fully understand how they work! I think some of the most important developments in science in the next few years will come in understanding how our brains work!
