Smartphones are so ubiquitous that they almost fade into the background. Everyone has one and nobody thinks twice about them. But what if they were affecting the way our brains function in a very tangible way? That would mean society has been collectively altered and we don't even know it. In this episode we take a look at the research of the tenuous relationship between smartphones and our brains.
