Super Brain Summit. A practical guide to your brain's plasticity
Description
There's been a revolution in brain science that provides us with a new understanding of the basis of origin of our unique individual person-hoods. That science also helps us understand 'what goes wrong' in an accounting for developmental or acquired neurological impairments, loss, and 'disease.' We'll review this science on the path to considering some aspects of its practical importance for you and for human societies. Fun Facts: Plasticity is bi-directional. We can train our brain to improve or degrade our abilities. Remember what wires together fires together, so we want to change our wiring for accuracy and fidelity; power and strength and complexity and richness.
