Abstract

Did you know that the "achievement gap" is already underway before a child reaches Kindergarten? Dr. Sheldon will discuss the new brain science leading to a better understanding of much of our society's educational, social, and psychic pathology and why we must move our focus and some of our funding to the earliest possible age.
