A recent University of Cambridge study suggests the brain remains in an adolescent phase until around age 32, after which it fully transitions into adulthood, impacting areas like decision-making and impulse control.

Okay. According to a new study from the
University of Cambridge, uh it's the
brain stays in its adolescent phase,
excuse me, up until we're approximately
32 and after that it rewires into
adulthood. So Lisa, you are a
neuroscientist. Talk about what is your
reaction to this?
>> Um so this is a new study. It's one
study. So I always tell folks when you
come across scientific information,
what's the source? Is it a chiropractor?
Um, [laughter]
no. Is it an influencer? No. But this is
a legit study and it's one, so it needs
to be repeated. But, um, yeah, it's, you
know, we've had this this, um, the data
has shown historically that we think it
was like 25 when the brain fully
developed and now it's extended out to
32 is what we think it is. And so, what
does that mean? And it means that the
most newly evolved part of your brain,
especially your prefrontal cortex,
that's the part of your brain that's
responsible for decision making, problem
solving, controlling impulses, isn't
fully at its best, we think, until
you're about 32.
>> That explains all the shopping sprees at
28. I get it.
>> Shopping spree.
>> Yes. Impulse control. I had problems.
Uh, but is there a point where any of
you felt like, yes, this tracks with my
life? Like 32. Yeah, that's when I hit it.
it.
>> I feel like I came in stages. The first
one was when I felt like I was
financially independent from my parents
which was probably in my early 20s. The
second was I had an awareness around 25
as well. I'm going to die one day like
and I that was like a real wakeup
moment. And then the third was right
after giving birth and I remember Jason
and I were looking at each other and we
were told you can go and we were just
like you're going to let us go out of
this place.
We had the same feeling.
>> Yeah. Yeah. I had questioning that. It's
like what? Nobody's coming with us. It
was amazing that there wasn't somebody
who's like, "You need to pass a test
before you leave this hospital." Like, I
honestly believe that we have we have
zero credentials to be doing this. For
me, it wasn't just having a child that
made me feel like an adult. I will say
it was having a child and becoming a
working mom at the same time. There was
something that shifted where I went, I'm
supposed to do all of this. I was like,
this is adulting and how the heck did my
mom do this? That was number one. The
second thing that I did, uh, and this is
not a humble brag, when I got to a point
in my career that I thought I could give
back, I wanted to be able to give back.
And in 20121, I created a scholarship at
my university, my alma mater. And I
never thought I would ever be able to do
that. And why I wanted to do that was
because I was able to go to university
because of someone else's generosity.
And I always said if I could give back,
so I have the Melissa Greo Entrance
Scholarship for Black and Indigenous
Excellence at York University.
>> Really? SO CHECK IT OUT.
>> WELL, I think I think if you are the
oldest daughter in a family, the answer
to this question is when you felt like
as an adult was when your sibling was
born because in my household it was soon
as my sister was born, there's a
nine-year age gap. As soon as she was
born, I was turned into a co-parent, not
a sibling. I was expected to help. I was
doing my own laundry.
>> Age difference.
>> Uh nine years. That's what I say. A nine
year age difference, right? So by the
time I'm 10, I'm helping with
everything. warming bottles. I'm
washing. I'm doing laundry. I'm getting
the food ready. At one point, I was
actually taking my my sister to school
and dropping her off before I went to
school. And that was in junior high.
Wow. And there was very little um room
for error. I felt like growing up there
wasn't like a lot of wiggle room. I
don't ever my parents saying to me, "Oh,
she's just a teenager. Let her make
mistakes." It was like, "No, no, you
have to help. You have to help. You have
to help your sister. You got to help me
do this." So, I feel like there's a
group of us who are like, "Oh, 32 must
be nice."
>> All right.
>> For me, it was around 12. Yeah. Right. Yeah.
