• Question: Is there anyway of comparing and guessing how intellegent somebody maybe or the potential a person has to be clever just by analysis of the brain, without an individual taking a test etc?

      Hi @mattlynch and @tallulahbelle78
      I don’t know of a way you’d be able to tell how intelligent someone would be just by looking at their brain.

      That’s not to say it won’t be possible at some time in the future, but I don’t think we’re able to do this at the moment.

      Hope this answers your question!
