Performance science

Performance science is all about figuring out how to do things really well, like playing sports or music, dancing, or even doing your homework. Scientists who study performance look at things like how your body moves, how fast your brain can process information, and how you can use your emotions to do better. They also study things like nutrition and sleep to figure out how to help people perform at their best. Just like how a chef mixes ingredients together to make a yummy meal, scientists use different tools and methods to figure out how to help people be their best. So, performance science is like being a super detective who figures out all the secrets about what it takes to be great at something!
