Adolescence: The Brain's Quest for Identity and Independence (The Social Brain ep 39)

The adolescent brain is often characterized as an imbalanced, hormone-charged, and broken version of an adult brain. The reality, however, is much more nuanced and interesting. Adolescence is a critically important period of brain development that allows for rapid learning, social affiliation, and exploration. It's found in many species across the animal kingdom and it serves an extremely important purpose. Join us in this episode of The Social Brain, as we discuss brain development through the lens of adolescence.
