Trauma and the Developing Brain

11:00

Spend some time in an elementary school classroom, and you'll meet easygoing kids, and kids who lose control. Some aspects of temperament are established in infancy, but self-control problems can signal abuse, neglect or trauma. This hour we'll look at how early experiences change brain chemistry, and what happens when neuroscience meets behavioral therapy.
