In part 3 of our Research Series, we dive deeper into the data of our programs and long-term results on participants.

So, you are probably all anxious to hear about those brain changes we alluded to in Part 1 of our story but…we’re not quite there yet. The seeds of our research journey really begin back in 1987!
