Brain Rules for Parents with Dr. John Medina is potent evening of considering the fascinating biology of the human brain in relation to parenting. A renowned scientist with a keen wit and flair for drama, John Medina ingeniously rockets brain science out of the laboratory and into our homes in ways it can be easily applied!

Come hear John bring colorfully to life the 12 essential brain rules that every parent needs to know. Learn what your child’s brain needs—as well as your own—to function well. Discover the critical parenting practices that set children on the path of life-long happiness. Find out how wonder, curiosity, exercise, and stress shape the biology of the developing brain.

This captivating and charismatic speaker will get you thinking about the brain and parenting in a whole new way.

Dr. John J. Medina is a developmental molecular biologist, research consultant, and author. His latest book, the 2008 New York Times Bestseller, Brain Rules, 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home, and School, provocatively challenges the current structures of our learning, working, and living environments. Dr. Medina holds faculty appointments at the University of Washington and at Seattle Pacific University. (www.brainrules.net)
