How is our biology affected by feeling? Why are peer experiences important in development? Why is connecting with others important? How can these connections start during youth and young adulthood?

Join author and psychologist Susan Pinker (The Village Effect: Why Face-to-Face Contact Matters) and Professor William Bukowski in a conversation about the science of connecting and its implications for your well being.

Professor William Bukowski is a developmental psychologist whose work focuses on youth interactions, and how and why children's and adolescents' experiences with their peers affect their well-being.

Event will be followed by a book signing. Register today!
