The Gifted Brain
  1. Morphology
    1. Glial Cells
      1. Number matters
        1. Active roll in brain function
        2. Neurons
          1. Very large
            1. Very small
              1. Different Groupings
            2. Operations
              1. Process more effeciently
                1. Less activity in cortex while processing information
                  1. Doesn't have to work as hard as normal brain
