Does the unique wiring of your brain dictate your personality?
In short: Neuroscientist Kevin Mitchell explores how variations in brain development influence the fundamental traits that make us individuals, from intelligence to sexuality.
In this Royal Institution talk, recorded on 25 October 2018, Kevin Mitchell examines the link between neural architecture and human diversity. He investigates how the specific ways our brains are wired during development can shape adult psychology and behavior.
Drawing on his own research, Mitchell addresses whether these developmental processes are the root of differences in intelligence, personality, and sexuality.
