Measuring Animal Intelligence: How smart are they?

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Measuring Animal Intelligence: How smart are they?
Published: July 24, 2016 by VPR Producer

How smart are animals? That’s a question that scientists – and pet owners – have been asking for decades. Our guest is a scientist who has studied animal intelligence and he discusses how neuroscience and biology are coming up with new definitions of what it means to be an intelligent animal, and using medical technology and unique experiments to better understand intelligence in non-humans.


Guest Information:

  • Frans de Waal, professor in the psychology department at Emory University in Atlanta, and director of the Living Links Center at Yerkes National Primate Research Center, author of the book Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?
