CBC: MEHRI Study “The Power of Play”

The mission of York University’s Milton & Ethel Harris Research Initiative was to study processes that promote the development of a healthy mind in young children. The team looked at this issue at both the psychological and the neurobiological level, and the complex interactions that take place between the two. The goal was to understand the interaction between psychological and neurobiological processes in order to identify and mitigate potential problems as early as possible, and to enhance the development of healthy minds in all children.
