Do men and women think differently?
All in the Mind follows Kiwi brain development specialist Nathan Wallis as he journeys around the island to present compelling science about a very big life question. The doco brings neuroscience to life using dynamic experiments, real-life wisdom, and easy-to-use information. Presenter Nathan Wallis is a scientific rock-star for your brain waves - well-dressed but down to earth, super-smart but with a Southland burr.
Journey along with Nathan as he travels to New Zealand laboratories in the vanguard of brain research as he makes entertaining and educational discoveries. Along that way he explores underlying ideas about brain plasticity, gender stereotypes and biological gender with intersex activist Mani Bruce Mitchell. Mani shares her extraordinary personal journey through gender identity, as Nathan asks whether our brains really set us apart, or is that difference essentially a prejudice? Is the male brain different to a female brain, or is it ‘all in the mind’?
