How Your Biography Affects Your Biology

  • Spark Center 1214 W Summit Pkwy Spokane, WA, 99201 United States (map)

Join us for the next event in our myth-busting series:  How Your Biography Affects Your Biology. New research in the field of neuroscience, epigenetics, adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), and resiliency shed light on how the experiences in our life shape our brain and body function--and that of our children--affecting the quality of our health, relationships, self-regulation, and on-the-job performance. Free and open to the public.
