Summary: | Five-year-old Aidan Na day starts like many other children's: with a sleepy-eyed bus ride to school. But Aidan is getting his education in Singapore, the country that is ranked the smartest country in the world. Aidan is one of the smartest kids in the smartest country, with a chart-topping IQ score. A world away in Los Angeles, some of the funniest people on the planet gather for an improv show at the famous Groundlings comedy club.

On this Vital Signs, CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta explores the theory of nature vs. nurture when it comes to genius and creativity.
