Tai’s 14 now. As he goes through adolescence, there are all sorts of weird things happening in his brain that are literally reshaping it, getting him ready for adulthood! But what’s happening in there? Why do humans even have an adolescent phase? And how can Tai harness his mental superpowers while he has them?
This week Tai spoke to:
- Frances Jensen, Chair of Neurology in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania
- Juliet Davidow, psychology professor who developed the Learning and Brain Development Lab at Northeastern University
