The Fascinating World of Brain Plasticity: How It Can Boost Your Learning

In this informative video from 2015, Dr. Lara Boyd takes us on a journey through the fascinating world of brain plasticity.

She explains how the brain can change in response to experiences and how this can help support short and long-term memory, as well as motor skills. Boyd highlights the importance of understanding neuroplasticity and how it can lead to better rehabilitation interventions for those suffering from stroke.

She emphasizes that everyone is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Boyd’s research is revealing that certain characteristics of brain structure and function can predict patterns of recovery after stroke.

She encourages everyone to discover how they learn best, adopt healthy behaviors and break those that are not.
