Oxford Brain Story

For Families & Individuals

The Brain Story is about how experiences shape our brains. It is a story for everyone, as we all depend on those around us for the experiences that build our brain architecture. This forms the foundation on which our future learning, behaviour and health is built.

This series of short animations will help you understand more about how brains are built and why our early experiences matter.
