The Neuroscience of Adverse Childhood Experiences 🧠💚

Uncover the science behind how early life experiences shape the developing brain and influence lifelong wellbeing. This Seed Talks event explores the neuroscience of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) — from how stress rewires neural pathways to the remarkable capacity for resilience and recovery. Join us for an evidence-based deep dive into one of psychology’s most important discoveries, followed by a live Q&A.

What to expect:

  • 🧬 A clear, accessible explanation of how childhood adversity affects brain development and long-term health outcomes
  • 🔬 Insights into the latest research on neuroplasticity, resilience factors, and evidence-based interventions
  • 💬 An interactive Q&A session with the speaker to explore your questions on trauma, recovery, and the developing brain
