DESCRIPTION:*Theme: Lifelong Brain Development*\n\nIn this special session
 \, Author Bill Harris talks about his new book "Zero to Birth: How the Hum
 an Brain is Built"\n\nBy the time a baby is born\, its brain is equipped w
 ith tens of billions of intricately crafted neurons wired together to form
  a compact and breathtakingly efficient supercomputer. The book is meant t
 o give a broad audience (i.e. non-neuroscientists) a sense of the step-by-
 step construction of a human brain as well as our current conceptual under
 standing of various processes involved. The book also hopes to highlight r
 elevance of brain development to our growing understanding of cognitive an
 d psychological variations and syndromes. The author will talk about the b
 ook including the many challenges and rewards involved in writing it. \n\n
