More people prefer their own homes over larger impersonal workspaces. What does the brain have to do with this? New research points to brain cells connected to a place to "curl up" or enjoy more personal space. 
Joe Tsien from the Center for Systems Neurobiology at Boston University shows research that supports an interesting discovery. Through an interesting series of studies researchers identified brain cells that appear to encode the concept of “nest.”
Researchers reported that … to form such an abstract concept here is also to guide behavior when a person deals with complex or new situations.
I'm curious about the new findings as these relate to daily behavioral experiences and new demands made from increasingly fast paced and complex workplaces?
Is it possible that this brain cell area for safety, nesting and rest, activate more as modern workplaces grow more demanding and hostile?
For example, could this be why more people than ever before work from home? What do you think?
