“Children and senior citizens are both vulnerable groups when it comes to health, and autism and Alzheimer’s disease are major public health challenges facing these populations. My work explores the profound impact of green spaces on both of these health threats – connecting one environmental influence to the health of people from the beginning of their lives through their final years. As we delve into the therapeutic potential of nature, we can find a path toward enhancing the well-being of our youth and elderly.”
