The Orienting Reflex
Elkhonin Goldberg was a student of the greatest neuropsychologist that ever worked in the world. He established the groundwork for the modern understanding of the brain. Two other people, Vinogradova and Sokolov, discovered something called the Orienting Reflex. That's the reflex that orients you towards what you don't understand. They should have won a Nobel Prize for that but maybe because they were Russian.
