Carson Ingle
The insights that neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor can provide about the brain are invaluable. She will address the organ's importance at the third annual SpelLIFE Women's Wellness Summit.
The summit was held on Saturday morning at 9 a.m. at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Naples, Florida. The overarching theme of the event is "brain health", making Bolte Taylor's presence very topical.
Bolte Taylor's keynote was "How to Get Your Brain to Do What You Want it to Do". She discussed the relationship between both sides of the brain and how certain cells perform different neurological functions.
Bolte Taylor had her life impacted forever by a stroke she suffered at age 37. It set her down the path of an eight-year recovery and has influenced her work as a scientist and speaker.
In 2006, Bolte Taylor released the New York Times bestseller, "My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journal". Two years later, she gave the first-ever TED Talk that went viral on the internet.
As a result, Bolte Taylor was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Time Magazine in 2008. Her 18-minute TED presentation is one of the top five most-viewed discussions in the series of all-time.
