From Lab Bench to Court Bench: Using Science to Inform Decisions in Juvenile Court <http://email.dana.org/c.html?rtr=on&s=awru,si7p,594,k731,82ox,dlq4,m3a0>
By Judge Cindy S. Lederman
Juvenile court judges are asked to determine what is in the best interest of the child in every case they hear. Until about a decade ago, court decisions were routinely made without taking into consideration the needs of toddlers and infants. The Miami Child Well-Being Court� (MCWBC) program, a partnership of clinicians and judges, has brought science into the courtroom, making it integral to the decision-making process and working to ensure that the needs of the child are met.
A complementary article, "Effects of Stress on the Developing Brain" <http://email.dana.org/c.html?rtr=on&s=awru,si7p,594,9e6z,ewo1,dlq4,m3a0> by Bruce S. McEwen, Ph.D., takes an in-depth look at the science involved. Early-life stress can lead to long-lasting behavioral, mental, and physical consequences. Fortunately, preventive measures can improve health outcomes, and while interventions for those who have already experienced debilitating early-life stress require considerable effort, they remain possible, thanks to the brain's plasticity.

Also, "Football-Related Neurodegenerative Syndrome Creates Anxiety--And Controversy" <http://email.dana.org/c.html?rtr=on&s=awru,si7p,594,k5vs,dp9q,dlq4,m3a0> discusses how some researchers are portraying chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) as a progressive brain disorder that can originate from head trauma.
