In this episode of "The Top Line," Teresa Carey talks with Dr. Sebastian Ocklenburg, Department of Psychology at MSH Medical School Hamburg, Germany, about how significant left-handedness is to clinical research. It is International Left-Hander's Day, so we dive deep into understanding brain hemisphere asymmetry and its significance in the context of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders.
