For babies and children, learning is a natural process. Through play, they explore and develop their cognitive, social, and emotional skills. Early experiences in childhood set the stage for later growth, forming the basis for a healthy life and lifelong learning.

Why do children learn differently from adults? Which brain mechanisms play a key role in this process? When, how, and in which environment do we learn best? And what happens if children face less-than-ideal learning conditions?

The event continues the series of Germany-wide symposia of the Hector Fellow Academy. There, renowned experts present current research topics in a generally and understandable way and discuss future vision. The HFA is a young science academy that promotes cutting-edge interdisciplinary research around STEM fields, psychology and medicine.
