Susan’s approach to creating effective translational models combine interdisciplinary, evidence-based research with practical, applicable ideas and programs. She brings together scientists, educators, families, psychologists, advocates, policymakers, educational media, technologists, and others to share their perspectives and expertise on education, family life, and other topics.
In our conversation she shared her views on building life-long relationships with children, and discussed the importance of recognizing that we're all continuing to learn and develop. She also shared why it's important to realize that it's never too late to help a child developmentally.
