The Connectome: The Brain’s Road to Healing Trauma
October 24, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm PDT
Cost: $20About the Event
Within the human brain, there are some 86 billion neurons making over 100 trillion connections to each other. Beginning to understand the connectome – the comprehensive map of connections between neurons in the brain, offers amazing insights into the neural circuits that underlie behavior. Understanding also provides valuable insights into the healing path and what is happening in the brain as we recover from trauma. The surprising thing about healing trauma is that we don’t erase anything from the brain – we just change the way the brain connects! Join Sarah Peyton for a 90-minute exploration of the latest science of brains and its implications for making brains good places to live after hard things happen – the connectome!
- This is an online zoom webinar that runs for 90-minutes with an optional 30 min Q&A.
