Our Team

Elizabeth and Louise co-lead the Oxford Brain Story (OBS); they are passionate about the importance of engaging policymakers, practitioners and the public with the science of early brain development and implications for lifelong health outcomes. They work in partnership with the Palix Foundation in Alberta, Canada and closely with colleagues using the Brain Story around the globe.

Elizabeth and Louise’s work includes developing and evaluating strategies to embed the Brain Story knowledge across frontline services in health, education, social care, and the criminal justice system, as well as initiatives to share the science through existing professional training structure, secondary school science curriculum content and directly with parents. 

The OBS team have delivered training on the Brain Story to over 5000 professionals across England, Scotland and Wales. Read more about their work and impact and follow Oxford Brain Story on LinkedIn to stay updated.

All training events and resources are free to access.

Please contact the OBS team if you would like to discuss how the Brain Story might be relevant to your organisation or place of work; we’d be delighted to hear from you!
