About the recording
This recording was captured during the second CanNRT Annual Summer School, held August 19–23, 2024, at the SENS HØTEL in Montréal, Québec. The event brought together 33 students and over 30 mentors from across Canada and beyond, creating a vibrant space for advancing neurodevelopmental research and fostering meaningful connections.
In this session, four speakers explore the role of lived and living experience in research. Through personal stories and professional insights, they reflect on how centering diverse perspectives can shift research practices and strengthen community impact.
