Resilience in Low-Income Children: Brain's Stochasticity Spurs Unique Adaptations | RC 52

With empirical data, children from low socioeconomic environments adapt to tough situations in unique ways from higher randomness in the brain. The "adaptive stochasticity hypothesis" is a fancy way of saying that in life, different situations can lead to many different outcomes, and sometimes people adapt to tough situations in unique ways. It's all about how we deal with challenges and end up in various places.

Sofia Carozza, Postdoctoral Researcher at Harvard Medical School deconstructs her team's recent paper on randomness and neurodevelopmental outcomes, and how neurodiversity and genomic differences from Ancestral trauma or intergenerational trauma held within our DMA could play a part in higher randomness in the brain.
