Chantel Prat is a Professor of Psychology, with appointments in Neuroscience and Linguistics at the University of Washington. Her award-winning research challenges the “one size fits all” approach to neuroscience that has dominated the field for over a century. Her work, funded by the Office of Naval Research, the W. M. Keck Foundation, and the National Institute of Health, provides the data for improving our understanding of something we all observe on a daily basis—that not everyone works the same. Over the past 25 years, Dr. Prat has been a leader and innovator in individual differences research, studying the costs and benefits of different types of information processing in the brain. From how we learn to communicate, to how we reason, problem solve, and respond to surprises and disappointments, Chantel’s research provides a mechanistic understanding of why we all think, feel, and behave a bit differently. Dr. Prat is also a world-renowned science communicator and thought leader. Her debut book, The Neuroscience of You: How Every Brain is Different and How to Understand Yours was nominated for the Washington State Book Awards and was featured in The Next Big Idea Club.
