Ep. #99: Neurodiverse Curiosity, with Kristy Johnson

Kristy Johnson, now a post doc at MIT Media Lab, believes we're thinking about curiosity all wrong -- and leaving out a huge swath of the human experience while we're at it. She offers an exciting alternative: define curiosity as the ways in which an individual excels in exploring, and then go from there. The latest in our Curiosity Studies series.

Special thanks to Noel Bicknell and his students at The Lab School for their added wisdom and delightful sound effects.
