The Metamorphosis Project 2016 Learning Conference July 18‐21 Mountain Brook High School MB‐S16231 (Mis)understanding the Teenage Brain Wednesday, July 20 8:00‐10:00 MBHS Research has generated much interest in the teenage brain, including the now widely‐known assertion that the brain, and some of its faculties related to judgment, are not fully developed until the mid‐20s. While there is little question that the brains of teenagers and young adults are still developing, this information has been misunderstood and often interpreted negatively. In this talk, clinical psychologist Dale Wisely will help us sort out appropriate and inappropriate ways to understand the teen brain research.
