Cognition Conference in Vancouver this summer

I'm taking a fascinating course at Wilkes right now about Cognition and Technology. I found a link to an upcoming conference called Brain Development and Learning: Making Sense of the Science (http://www.interprofessional.ubc.ca/bdl.html). The speakers who'll be here are truly amazing. Here's the link to a podcasted interview with the woman who organises this conference every year -- http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/2009/learning-doing... and a quote about her work: "What Adele Diamond is learning about the brain challenges basic assumptions in modern education. Her work is scientifically illustrating the educational power of things like play, sports, music, memorization and reflection. What nourishes the human spirit, the whole person, it turns out, also hones our minds."
