Mark Holder – Let’s Promote Wellness in Patients

We asked Mark Holder to tell us (and a few hundred of our friends) about his hopes for health care. He did so through a Pecha Kucha presentation at Health Talks on February 18, 2015.

After earning his Ph.D., Mark conducted brain transplants to reverse impairments caused by brain injuries. At Memorial University of Newfoundland, he studied how natural chemicals, 200 times the strength of heroin, were released when people ate chocolate chip cookies. He now studies the science of happiness.
