Listen "How stress changes the brain and why it’s contagious"

And it’s all a race against the clock. As a society, we seem to be stressed out. And what makes this dilemma even more problematic is that stress is contagious! That’s right. The research on this is fascinating. Just listen to neuroscientist Jaideep Bains. We take a deep dive into our brains to find out what’s happening to us when we’re on stress overload.Info on Guest:Jaideep Bains is a neuroscientist, Director of of the Krembil Research Institute and Senior Scientist at the Krembil Brain Institute, University Health Network in Toronto.
