Event Information
My Favorite Lecture | The World Needs All Types of Minds
Presenter(s):
Dr. Temple Grandin
Description:
Dr. Temple Grandin's "Favorite Lecture" centers on animal behavior, visual thinking, and autism. She will discuss how—by thinking in pictures rather than in language—her visual mind allows her to understand animal behavior in ways that others cannot.
An outspoken advocate for autistic people, Dr. Grandin will identify several types of "unique minds" found in the autism spectrum and explore how the complex challenges of the future can be better addressed by engaging those same "minds" in the search for solutions.
