48. Growing a Social Brain
Update: 2024-06-07
Description
In this episode of Mommy Brain Revisited I talk with Dr Shir Atzil an Assistant Professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
We discuss her recent Perspective in Nature Human Behaviour titled ‘Growing A Social Brain’. A must read!
We talk about the importance of a caregiver or caregivers in growing a social brain, what happens when infants are more challenging or parents are struggling, and the fact that the parental brain is actually in charge of two brains.
You won’t want to miss this one!
