Brain Project

Research by leading neuroscientists has led to an expanded understanding
of how the human brain develops throughout childhood and adolescence.
Through public awareness and training The Brain Project works to ensure
that those who work with and on behalf of children and adolescents better
understand the relationship between brain biology and the impacts of life
experiences on the developing brain.

January/February Website Spotlight Rita Carter, science writer, lecturer, broadcaster
	Rita Carter has been a long-time favorite of WCCF “brain freaks.” We have used her books, particularly Mapping the Mind and Exploring Consciousness, in our materials. And I have to admit, Santa Claus brought me her latest – The Human Brain Book – a wonderfully illustrated guide to structure and function. Her website is fun; check out the “Articles” link for lots of informative stuff. Good material under “Reviews,” too. Have fun!!. www.ritacarter.co.uk/ Website Spotlight Archive
