A personal note: The most important things I’ve learned haven’t been from academic pursuits. They've come from unexpected sources, real-life events, and openness to exploring radically different perspectives. I've certainly learned more from my failures than from my achievements. Much of my research is based on insights from my son Caleb, who was on the autism spectrum. My work was inspired by his transparency, abilities of self reflection and views on brain plasticity.
