Robert Sapolsky - 'Stress, neurodegeneration and individual differences.



Robert Sapolsky travels to Kenya every year to study primates, as they are similar to humans in that they have almost no natural predators and so the majority of their stress derives from social functioning. More specifically, Sapolsky studies the cortisol levels between the Alpha male and female and the subordinates to determine stress level. thank you to the awesome Sandra Kiume from channel n and omni brain
