Abstract Poverty is still a serious problem in China and all over the world. Previous researches show that poverty has a serious impact on the physical and mental health, emotion, and cognition of poor people. With the development of brain imaging technology, researchers have made a deep study of the relationship between poverty and brain development. They found that poverty influences the development of the individual brain, including frontal lobe, temporal lobe, hippocampus, amygdale, and cingulate. This paper aims to explore the mechanism underlying the impact of poverty on the brain development, and design appropriate intervention to facilitate the development of the poor people.
