LIS Webinar: The Neuroscience Behind Inequality

Explore the intricate connections between neuroscience and socioeconomic inequality in this webinar hosted by LIS Professor, Waqās Ahmed.

Delve into how socioeconomic factors shape the brain's development—from early stages through to adulthood and ageing. Challenge your perspective on inequality, highlighting neuroscience's potential to inform equitable policies and societal frameworks.

We'll explore examples such as how understanding the mechanisms of early brain development could encourage a policy emphasis on antenatal care in deprived boroughs. Or how a deeper understanding of the ageing brain could allow urban designers to better plan for areas dense with an elderly population. Sign up below!
