The brain is one of the most difficult organs of the human body to study because the brain meshes psychology (your thoughts and personality) with anatomy (the brain structure and function).

A new study uses functional MRIs to examine how certain areas of the brain are more active in competitive social situations. The MRI can monitor which brain cells are using more oxygen when competitors play games. This information may give researchers insight into how the brain processes feelings, strategies, and actions in social settings.
