Teenagers' changing brains mean what they choose at 16 can shape their lives forever.

Professor Robert Winston and professor Tanya Byron discover how teenagers' changing brains means that what they choose to do at 16 can shape their lives forever.

In this episode Professor Robert Winston and Professor Tanya Byron discover how our teenagers' changing brains means that what they choose to do at 16 can shape their lives forever. With surprising new research in human biology and neuroscience, we reveal how the most baffling aspects of teenage life can be explained and illuminated by the latest understanding of the changing teenage brain.

The brains of our 16-year-olds are wired to feel more self-conscious, to be more mentally creative and to feel more intense pleasure than at any other time in their lives. Through intimate stories, compelling archive and experiments, Child of Our Time brings you the inside story of today's 16-year-olds.
