Virtual
Caring for others is one of the most meaningful, important, and morally compelling things we ever do—and one of the most difficult.
You are invited to join the American Academy for a virtual discussion inspired by our newest Daedalus volume, “The Social Science of Caregiving.” Coeditor Alison Gopnik and contributor Laura Carstensen will lead a conversation exploring our relationship to caregiving and receiving care that spans from the earliest moments of infancy to the end of life.
