About Learning & the Brain®
Learning & the Brain® connects educators with the latest scientific research and evidence-based practices to improve instruction and interventions in schools. Through conferences, webinars, summer institutes, and on-site PD, Learning &the Brain® provides professional development to educators including teachers, school administrators, clinicians, counselors, and speech-language pathologists.
We are committed to scientific integrity and intellectual diversity. Rather than promoting particular ideologies or methodologies, Learning & the Brain® curates insights from distinguished researchers across cognitive science, psychology, social science, and child development, alongside pioneering educators who translate research into real-world impact.
Our mission is simple: to ensure that every educator has access to the most current, evidence-based understanding of how learning happens, so they can create more effective, inclusive, and transformative educational experiences for all students.
