Join Linda S. Pagani as she traces more than three decades of scientific inquiry into human development and family environments. Drawing on a rich body of prospective‑longitudinal research, Professor Pagani will offer a powerful and integrative perspective on what truly shapes children’s trajectories, and how these insights illuminate the foundations of a healthy and meaningful lifestyle in the 21st century. Her visit and conference will weave together empirical evidence, developmental theory, and reflections on contemporary challenges to propose a clear, research‑grounded vision of “what matters most” for human flourishing in our modern world. This is a rare opportunity to hear a leading scholar and clinician synthesize a lifetime of work into a forward‑looking conceptual framework that speaks directly to those concerned with population health and deeply invested in the well‑being of future generations.
