Translating the Neuroscience
of Sensory Integration
into Everyday Language
Welcome!
My mission with the Science Snapshot project is to help us better understand our kids by translating the neuroscience of behavior, emotions, and learning into everyday language. Newsletter subscribers receive regularly scheduled emails that highlight a focused piece of research and connect it to real life—shared in a format you can listen to or watch on your commute, while cooking dinner, or during a walk.
