Our Mission

To remove obstacles to self-agency and health equity through the application of interdisciplinary science.


The Podcast

Spitfires and Hotshots 3.jpg

Common misconceptions about emotions and behaviors impact everything from how we parent, to how a judge sentences youth in their courtroom. Illuminating the neural origins of emotion and behavior can bring relief to parents, youth, and direct care staff. This podcast is intended to do just that. Think “Car Talk” meets neuroscience.

Spitfires & Hotshots is a podcast for anyone who lives or works with human beings.
