KAREN TOMPKINS | YOUR BRAIN HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN BUT YOU CAN OUTSMART IT!
When Karen's first child was born she stopped breathing. Yes, she did survive—but it kept happening. Three years later they learned her daughter was missing a part of her brain that controlled breathing.
It became Karen's mission to learn all things neuroscience. She hunted down knowledge with neurologists across the world and in universities across Canada and the States.
If we understand our brains, we can trick them into helping us live better. It’s unfair but people with intrusive behaviours often get judged harshly in this world. As President of the International Joubert Syndrome Foundation Karen has advocated for sufferers of brain-behaviour problems like her daughter. Advocacy—driven by compassion and science—is still a part of her work today.
