How Einstein's Brain was Different?In 1955, Dr. Thomas Harvey stole Albert Einstein's brain after his death.
Harvey was a pathologist who knew only about postmortem studies; he was
more interested in studying this brain than facing any consequences.
Harvey took Einstein's brain to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and hid it in
his basement. After many years, Harvey moved to Wichita, Kansas with the
brain. 30 years after the first theft, a study was published on
Einstein's brain. For the next 28 years, many neurologists have published
several studies on this genius's brain, finding that Einstein's brain was
quite different from the ordinary human brain. The biggest difference was
found in the Corpus Callosum part. Albert Einstein was master in
processing maths and number in logical ways, rather than memorising them.
He had less memorising power and struggled to memorise simple
multiplication tables at the age of 26. At the age of 36, Einstein
published four research papers and made the world surprised.
Consequently, he was given a PhD degree and awarded the Nobel Prize for
playing an outstanding role for humanity.
