The biological mysteries behind your earliest human milestones
In short: From the chemistry of scent to the neurological limits of memory, babies are complex biological marvels. This compilation explores five key scientific questions about infant development and why they function the way they do.
Host Stefan Chin examines several distinct areas of pediatric science, including the chemical reasons behind why newborns have a pleasant scent and the physiological causes of jaundice in infants.
The video also investigates cognitive and developmental mysteries, such as the neurological reasons for infantile amnesia—the inability to remember being a baby—and whether exposure to music significantly impacts infant intelligence.
