A new study from NSCA member Linda Wilbrecht and her team at UC Berkeley showed that for young mice, food insecurity led to differences in learning and decision making in adulthood. The results highlight the importance of ensuring stable access to nutritional food for human youth during adolescence.
NSCA co-director Jennifer Pfeifer spoke at TEDxPortland about the fascinating science behind the developing adolescent brain, and about how “adolescence isn’t a problem to be solved; it’s a transformative period of growth and opportunity.”
NSCA member Jacqueline Nesi offers a series of recommendations from a new APA report to help parents, educators, lawmakers, and AI designers support young people’s well-being on AI platforms.
