Opportunity will be provided in the last 10 minutes of the webinar for questions and discussion.
Learning Objectives:
Participants will be provided an opportunity to:

- explore how the Biology of Cognition offers new perspectives about reality, fit, and change.
- join a community of family nursing practitioners and scholars who are committed to advancing knowledge about family health and healing.
