Psychiatrist and author Dr. Norman Doidge travels across North America to meet some of the pioneering researchers who made revolutionary discoveries about the plasticity of the human brain. He also visits with people, once thought to have had incurable brain injuries, who are now living normal lives. Known in scientific circles as "neuroplasticity," this radical new approach to the brain provides an incredible way to bring the human brain back to life.
Dr. Marian Diamond was a pioneering scientist and educator and considered one of the founders of modern neuroscience. At the University of California, Berkeley, she and her team were the first to publish evidence that the brain can change with experience and improve with enrichment, what is now called neuroplasticity. This documentary follows Dr. Diamond over a 5-year period and introduces the viewer to her many scientific accomplishments.
