Thank you for your interest in attending the Preceptorial, Why is Socioeconomic Status so Important for Health, Happiness, and Achievement? The Answer Involves the Brain hosted by the Center for Neuroscience & Society and led by University of Pennsylvania's own Dr. Martha Farah, cognitive neuroscience researcher and Walter H. Annenberg Professor in Natural Sciences. The Preceptorial is on Monday, April 14, 2025 from 4:00-5:15pm at Goddard Labs 200, 3710 Hamilton Walk.

Why do people from wealthier households have better health and cognitive skill than those raised with more limited means? Stress and childhood experience correlate with SES and impact the brain. We’ll discuss the how this might inform social policy.

If you sign up and are selected, you are expected to take part in the full 75-minute session. Be sure that you are available before signing up.

Deadline to sign up is Friday, April 11 at 11:59pm ET.
