Your brain has a fingerprint. Not just because it's wrinkly but because your brain connections are different from everybody else's. I could be sitting in a brain scanner thinking I’m hungry, I want a sandwich, remember that time a seagull took my sandwich at the beach, rude birds, I love the hit Rihanna song rude boy, and you'd probably think of different things. Based on your experiences and unique brain connections so specialists can play a matching game. they scanned multiple people's brains while they were resting two times each, then matched their scans which they could do with over 90% accuracy. But it doesn't always work, for example if your brain deteriorates from diseases like Alzheimer’s, your scans are much harder to mask. So, these brain fingerprints could become an early detection tool for some diseases, in the end it seems our fingerprints aren't our only fingerprints.
