Long-term Potentiation: You can learn anything | Amoy Antunet | TEDxYouth@Frisco

Amoy addresses the pitfalls associated with fear of information that may be difficult to grasp when first learning it. This talk will challenge you to take something practical, that you would otherwise spend money on, and learn to do it yourself. It could be cooking a new dish, changing car brakes, learning to do your own taxes, drafting up a business proposal, etc. Amoy hopes to inspire you to teach yourself something new that will work for you for the rest of your life. Amoy Antunet is a 9-year-old neuroscience expert from Atlanta, Georgia. Her love for science began at the age of three when she stumbled upon a microscope belonging to her father.
