We are excited to announce Dr. Stephanie Balters as the new Director of Research at CCARE. She brings a unique blend of scientific vision, multidisciplinarity, and human touch, making her an ideal leader for our research mission. Dr. Balters is renowned for integrating neuroscience, engineering, and human experiences, offering fresh perspectives on discovery and impact.
Her pioneering work in both single-brain and dual-brain neuroscience explores compassion as a dynamic, interpersonal process. This innovative approach enhances our understanding of how compassion functions in the brain, why it fosters resilience and healing, and when it can be cultivated through intentional practice. Her leadership will strengthen the scientific grounding of CCARE’s educational programs and compassion-based initiatives, connecting lived experiences with empirical brain science.
We warmly welcome Dr. Balters to the CCARE community and encourage you to connect, share insights, and explore collaboration opportunities. Learn more about Dr. Balters through her CCARE Profile.
