Our brain continues to develop throughout childhood and adolescence. It becomes fully matured only after the age of twenty. This development is influenced by environmental factors such as physical activity, nutrition, and the amount and quality of sleep.
Would you like to learn how environmental factors affect the functioning of adolescent brains? Are you interested in the effect upbringing has on this? This MOOC will examine these factors in greater depth.
