Last month Drs. Hieftje and Marks spoke at the Future Realities Summit at #GDC. Their talk is now available on the GDC Vault. See their presentation for insight into XR use with kids and the future of #XR integration in pediatric populations. bit.ly/3n99NbO

Yea we are! So many implications for the use of these technologies with minors. Good and bad! It requires careful conversation, deliberation, and methodically superb research. Let’s gooooo!

Disappointed in this article and CNN. For those experiencing the worst of grief, the task of moving through "stages" is infuriating. Grief doesn't work that way, just ask any bereaved parent. I wish the "Stages of Grief" would die already. #Grief #fail cnn.com/2021/09/12/hea…
