Description

Gabor Maté CM (born January 6, 1944) is a Hungarian-born Canadian physician. He has a background in family practice and a special interest in childhood development and trauma, and in their potential lifelong impacts on physical and mental health, including on autoimmune disease, cancer, ADHD, addictions, and a wide range of other conditions.

Now retired from clinical practice, he travels and speaks extensively on these and related topics, both in North America and abroad. His books have been published internationally in over twenty-five languages. Maté's approach to addiction focuses on the trauma his patients have suffered and looks to address this in their recovery, with special regard to indigenous populations around the world.

n neuroscience, we have three brains that allow us to go from thinking to doing to being. The thinking brain is the neocortex. And every time we learn something new, we forge a new synaptic connection in our thinking brain. The neocortex is that corrugated brain that sits on the outside, allows us to gain information from our environment. So was we begin to learn new things, we add a new stitch to circuits that represent the three-dimensional tapestry in our gray matter.
